Default Re: Desktop wallpaper disabled

Go to Start > All Programs > Accessories and right-click
on the Command Prompt and choose "Run as administrator".
Type in: SFC /SCANNOW and press your Enter key.

If that does not work, try doing a System Restore

If that does not work, try disabling System Restore, reboot in Safe Mode and
run a scan with your Antivirus and AntiSpyware utilities.
