Problems w/ Appearance Settings

[CC]

I am using Windows XP pro. I have tried to change the
appearance of my display. The selections will show until
I shut down. When I restart my computer, the display is
back to the default. Maybe someone can tell me what I am
doing wrong. I click on Start>Control
Panel>/Display>Appearance. Under Windows and Buttons I
select Windows XP Style. Under Color Scheme, I select
silver. I do not change the font. I then click Apply
and wait for it to change. I then click OK. Should I
have done something else? Thanks for any help you can
give.

Hi,

Remove the "NoSaveSettings" key

Click Start/Run/Regedit
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explor
er]

Value Name: NoSaveSettings
Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value Data: (0 = disabled, 1 = enabled)

*** Set the value to 0 ***

Restart Windows and re-apply the themes, appearance. etc.
