Hello! My computer crashed and all my settings were lost. I can no longer
right click my mouse and get all the display properties (appearance and themes). What do I need to reset to accommodate this function. Thank you and God bless! -- jimmyd |

First, eliminate Malware from the system. See:

Hello! I really appreciate your response. I tried this and none of the
items you listed appeared. So, I still am unable to access all of the appearance & themes when right clicking my mouse. Only one item will appear and then I have to go to the control panel to change additional items. Again, thank you and additional thoughts would be much appreciated.
