    Reset desktop background color

    To reset the desktop background color, set the value in registry:
    In XP it is HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Colors

    But in windows9x, I can't find the item "Color" under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\,
    How should I do?

    Thanks!

    USE RegSetValue();

    Don't set it in the registry. Use SystemParameterInfo().

    Could you give me some example?

    It seems that the function you mentioned can only change desktop wall paper WITH SPI_SETDESKTOPWALLPAPER

    Oh, you want to change the default color? That blue?

    That's something different. Hmm...

    Try asking in the windows forum here
