Desktop mayday

[Let'sgoflying!]

see pic. I clicked restore desktop and this message comes up. Neither Yes nor No fixes the problem. Nor does rebooting. Everything works fine but the desktop looks funny.
Thanks

Just turn "Active Desktop" off.

Happened to me a few days ago. Just follow these instructions and then wing it.

To add Web content to your desktop

1. Right-click a blank area on the desktop, and then click Properties.
2. On the Desktop tab, click Customize Desktop.
3. On the Web tab, click New, and then follow the instructions on your screen.

Notes

• You must be connected to the Internet to add active Web content to your desktop.
• To browse Microsoft's Desktop Gallery Web site, in the New Desktop Item Wizard, click Visit Gallery. The New Desktop Item Wizard opens when you click New on the Web tab.
• To select a different Web site, type the Web site address, or click Browse to locate it.
