    Desktop background and taskbar going black could be due to software conflicts.

    • What is the make and model of your computer and external monitor?

    • Check for updates under
      Windows Updates.

    Desktop background becomes Black while using teams on external monitor

    Lost desktop background

    I did a Search & Distroy spyware scan the other day, and one of the suggested "fixes" said something about removing Active Desktop. Like the muppet I am I clicked yes and am now without a desktop background picture.

    Does anyone have an idea how to reverse this? If I try to select a picture it's simply not added as a background.
