Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

SingaporeWebDesign has brought this to us :
Hello,

Try searching for other occurrences of NoDispAppearancePage as well as the other keys mentioned just now in the registry and delete them.

It happens that SingaporeWebDesign formulated :
Hello,

Its 0030hrs here :)

Anyway, the only two keys I mentioned in my replies are in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
and
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System

If you navigate to them using Registry Editor and find values of these names inside them..

NoColorChoice
NoDispAppearancePage
NoDispBackgroundPage
NoDispCPL
NoDispScrSavPage
NoDispSettingsPage
NoSizeChoice
NoVisualStylesChoice

..delete them and see if it solves your issue.

thank you thank you for clarifying, and have a good nap! ;)

Singapore, all those listed below are gone, deleted them all, rebooted, all that is shown now is Default.

NoColorChoice
NoDispAppearancePage
NoDispBackgroundPage
NoDispCPL
NoDispScrSavPage
NoDispSettingsPage
NoSizeChoice
NoVisualStylesChoice

..delete them and see if it solves your issue.



Machine/.........System did not show any of these values by name.



still no desktop tab after reboot.



good morning Singapore and again much deep thanks for all your patience and help. Scans have all been done in safe mode. Still no change in desktop tab.

Had thought about fresh install (boy here come the questions on that issue LOL) never done it, and computer students (first year) have not covered that yet, but we have a great place (here) to come to with questions.

Was just originally hoping that as small, yet persnickety problem this has been, that a quick fix would have worked.

We'll get our stuff together for gutting it out and installing, I am confident we'll be back :)
