No display properties

by diskfailure . Updated 25 years, 7 months ago

I have a Win95 Machine that a user has set a background .bmp on the desktop by right clicking on it. Now the display properties can no longer be accessed from the control panel or from a right click on the desktop. I cannot find any software associated with this image to uninstall. I have also removed the image with regedit. Even with a new background image I still have no way of getting to the display properties, not even in safe mode. When I right click on the desktop then left click on properties, all I get is a quick flash of the hourglass, then it changes back to the pointer. Same results from control panel. What gives?
