i treid that and that completely messed up my theme...and it created a blue border around the icon and when reapplied the wb..it went back to grey

also i found a problem when i press ctrl+alt+del...the wallpaper changes to what i had before the current one...and then when i started up the first few seconds the old wallpaper showed up as well...wuts the deal...? thanks

also the icons on my dock have reverted to ones like form lats week when i started up....thanks

Active Desktop is enabled, right?

(Run-->gpedit.msc-->User Config-->Administrative Temaplates-->Desktop-->Active Desktop)

-NC

sometimes its as simple as rightclicking the desktop > arrange icons by > show desktop icons by

do it and if the icons disappear do it again.

OB sometimes "hides" my icons and when i quit it the icons reappear with borders..

I think your wallpaper is a .png, and that's the reason... convert it to .jpeg and it'll show the shadow you want... ;)
