Background color for Names for desktop icons

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.newusers (More info?)

Hi Craig,

Right-click on My Computer, select Properties, Advanced tab, Settings button
in Performance section, under Visual Effects tab scroll down and click in
the checkbox beside "Use drop shadows for icon labels on the desktop" to
check it, then Apply then OK and OK again.

Right-click a blank area of the Desktop, then select Arrange Icons by and
click to uncheck "Lock Web Items on Desktop".



Regards,
