No Style XP isnt it, it was on my comp before the spyware hit and messed the stuff up.
Does anyone know a way to manually make the tabs show up through registry or something?

I'm having the same problem, the background tab and effects tab are missing from the Display Properties. I'm running on Win2000, is there some way I can get these tabs back on my computer? Please help! Thanks!
jcdees24 0 Newbie Poster
this worked for me
1) click 'start' then 'run'
2) type in 'regedit'
3) a scary looking thing loads, on the left there is a few folders named HKEY somethingorother, click HKEY_CURRENT_USER, then 'software', then 'microsoft', then 'windows' then 'currentversion', then click 'policies', and finally click 'system'
4) 5 icons should now have appeared on the right (see pic here: http://www.insomniafm.co.uk/upload/files/v2/./userfiles/DjSylva/regedit1.JPG)
5) double click the files NoDispBackgroundPage and NoDispAppearancePage and change their value from 1 to 0

At the time I had my problem I was buying dvd's & thought that the message I got was
back to front needles to say like an idiot I opened an Email from UPS parcels with an attch
& the instant I opened it I was hit with all manner of madness...
I did all the scans you could imagine, thinking I was still infected then I found this site & the
above link now my world is back where it should be...
Thank you very much Crunchie!! I know its an old post but it worked for me :)

While running the registry file found on Kellys Korner "restorealldisplaytabs.reg" does work, for some (such as myself) they may need extra steps to for full restoration. Please view this clear video tutorial on how to restore your tabs: How To Restore Display Properties And Missing Desktop Tabs Instantly!
