messed up "Tranparent Desktop Icons"

Featured Replies

I used nLite and removed/edited a bunch of stuff. After finishing up my buddies Laptop with a fresh WinXP 32bit install I realized Transparent Desktop Icons are not working. They are locked to the backround color, I tried re-applying "use drop shadows for icon labels on the desktop" under the Visual Effects tab but it does not work.

The one option I have a feeling it might be linked to is the "Do not cache thumbnails" option i checked in nLite.

So, Is there any way I can re-enabled the "Cache tunbnails" option post install to test if thats the cause?

thanks in advance.


It's not the cause. The caching of thumbnails has nothing to do with these shadows. You probably removed something else which you shouldn't have. If you post your last session log file as an attachment I'm sure that someone can tell you what you removed which you shouldn't have.
