    ----
My desktop background (wall paper) has been disabled (I cannot select anything, but the color) and I am using windows xp professional edition.

I checked the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\system and did not see anything related with the wallpaper.

Any help in restoring this would be appreciated. Thanks.

Check the local policies from the Control-panel / Administrative Tools / Security Settings / Local Policies /

Thanks for the reply. I checked there, but could not find anything related. Is there something that I need to look at.

Thanks.

Thanks for the replies. My current desktop looks just plain. I can change the color of the desktop background, but not the wallpaper or the photos.

I did scan with Malwarebytes, had couple of issues and they were deleted.

Thanks.
