Desktop problem


Recommended Posts

Posted

A white strip has appeared on the right side of my desktop. I can drag it

across to cover the entire screen but can't find a way to remove it.

 

Help

1. Open Control Panel, double-click Display.

2. Click the Desktop tab, and choose "Customize Desktop".

3. Select the "Web" tab

4. Delete all the items except "My current Home page"

5. Uncheck "My current Home page"

6. Click OK, and now select your Desktop background

7. Click OK and close the dialog.
