Carl,
In answer to your question, the troublesome software is desktop cycler. What I wanted
to do was change the icons on my desktop so I downloaded this software last Sunday.
This software did more than what I wanted and changed my wallpaper, the icons on
my start menu, and goodness knows what else. I tried to get back my original settings
but it seems like no matter what I did, including following the company's instructions,
the problem worsened.
Finally, I thought that if I used clean sweep to delete the program, that would solve
the problem. Not! So I tried reinstalling the program and then deleted it from the
Add/Remove Panel. No dice.
I had Microsoft Windows icons on my control panel, an ugly gray desktop that refused
to change no matter what, and of course, the gray menu bar. As I mentioned in my
first post, I have solved the first two problems but the gray menu bar remains.
There is no way in heck that I want to use the program again, I just want to know
how I can make that ugly gray menu bar go away and respond to the settings that I
set up in the display settings properties. Are there any other steps that I can
take besides what I mentioned in my first post?
I hope I have answered your questions, Carl. Again, thanks in advance for your help.
