Theme default to windows modified at each log in
I have recently installed Windows Xp Pro SP3. I set up two users on is
computer administrator the other is limited user. I have a problem with the desktop theme not applying past the log out. Every time i log in it loads a windows modified with a black task bar. I can change it in the administrator and it stays put. but not in either of the users. I have tried extensively to search the forums and other avenues to fix this however i have fallen short. I've followed suggestion to make sure thing aren't checked in the display settings. that is as it should be. I have run SFC/Scannow. Looked through my regedit files somethings they talk about are either not there or functioning properly. I am at my wits end can someone please help me. I don't know what else to try. |

This should download the file to your computer. Then double-click the file to install it. Malke -- MS-MVP Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic! FAQ - http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/#FAQ |
