Desktop Issues

[Cold Catalyst]

I made a desktop image in Photoshop, and when I applied it as my desktop, all my icons (the text rather) is outlined in blue, how do I make it transparent.

Cause the blue is ugly TBH

Quite odd as that should have worked.

Isn't that a standard feature? I normally have mine a shade higher than my desktop theme.

To try:

This works: Go to control panel - double click system choose advanced tab Click on settings within the performance box Make sure 'use drop shadows for icon labels on the desktop' is ticked. If not; tick and click apply, then ok and this should have reverted back, If not and the box was already ticked, try unticking it, apply, then ok and then restart the process over again Another thing to try: right click on the desktop go to arrange icons by and scroll down to 'lock web items on desktop' this should not be ticked. Hope this helps

can't take credit for this but after hours of trying, this finally worked. i am pasting something i found on another web site. here it is and it works. good luck. Hi, Right click on desktop. Click down to Properties, then open the Desktop tab. Click on the Customize Desktop button, then open the Web tab. Delete everything in the Web Pages box except, My Current Home Page. Press OK, then Apply, and maybe OK again. Possibly restart for settings to take effect. Should solve the problem. Good luck, Rob Warren
