    Photoware works in Win 10 but keys up solid black image. Please help.


    The photo-editing software I am using keys up and loads fine without any hitches but all I see is a solid black image.

    I re-installed the software to see if that was the problem but it's still doing the same.

    Anyone know the solution to making this software display the actual JPG image instead of solid black ones?

    :)

    How does one change the desktop icon text color in Win10?

    I had the same problem! The solution is ridiculous, but it works. Go to your personalization. Where it gives you the choice between picture, solid or slideshow, choose "solid". Set the color to orange, which will make the icon text color black by default.
    After you do this, you can set your background image and the icon color will remain black.

    Desktop background doesn't display pictures instead solid color or blank screen

    *Original Title: Desktop display issues.

    I cannot set any pictures as background. When I do, the background changes to a solid color. Usually black. I cannot even set Windows images to the background. This just started and I do not have a clue why. I have had the same picture on my desktop for
    some time. And now when I go to try and set the background to another image/picture, it switches to a solid color background. Tried troubleshooting various options and nothing seems to work on solving this issue. Please help. Do not want to spend forever on
    the chat help line. Thank you.

    Photoware works in Win 10 but keys up solid black image. Please help.

    Never mind, I figured the problem out. Here is the fix in case anyone should run into the same problem:

    1. Go to Tools from the Menu ... then Options ... then Display then DISABLE Direct Draw. (Note it's usually clicked as Enable so click it to Disable the feature.)

    2. Click Apply. Then "Okay"

    If the image is not viewing after that then close the software and reopen it. Images should be viewable on the software interface now and you are ready for editing.

    By the way, this was for Picture Publisher 10.
