I want by blue one back ---how do I get it? Control Panels : Personalize https://i.postimg.cc/pV7dGxWj/contro...ersonalize.gif The "picture" you select has to be the right size. Too small and a regular picture would "tile" the screen. However, in your case, this doesn't matter, because your claimed picture is a solid blue with only one pixel value, and when that is "tiled" to fill the screen, it will make absolutely no difference :-) Kinda convenient if you ask me. How do you find your "blue.bmp" picture that started all this ? I haven't a clue. Windows doesn't have image content search. You could, in an emergency, even make a 1x1 GIF of the right color, and ask the Personalize to "tile" a million copies of that. That would be fun. Paul |

1) Go to an unused part of your desktop and left click on it.
2) Click on "Personalize" 3) Go to the bottom of the personalization window and left click on "Desktop Background" 4) Go to the "Picture location:" mini-window and down arrow to "Solid Colors" 5) Find the color you wanted the background to be and left click on that color. 6) Left click on "Save changes" The desktop should now be the blank color you picked.
