How can I permanently change the background color of my desktop?

Question

I been trying to change the background of my desktop but everytime I restart it goes back to its original color. I right click go to properties, desktop and then chose my color but after a restart it wont retain the chosen color. What chould I do?

Answer 1

I have a feeling this is your work computer, right?   If so, what is stopping you from making a permanent change is either that you don't have the "rights" to change the color or there is actually a policy that your IT guys have put into place for your department or domain.   With policies, they can control what color your desktop is, what logo it has, even what menu items you have available.   Try to find out in a friendly way if they will help you to make that color change

Answer 2

after you choose your color do you click "ok" or "apply"?

click "apply"
