Hi
How can a user of XP (limited user) be allowed from changing the wallpaper without turning on the active desktop. Since ite degrades performance severely.
Thanks

context menu...
Local Machine or Group Policy:
User configuration|Administrative Templates|Windows Components|Windows Explorer|Disable Windows Explorer's default context menu

As for the registry the key is here:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer. Right click at an empty area on the right column and select New > DWORD Value. Use the name NoViewContextMenu. Double click the name and set the value data as 1.
