Update settings modification

Copper Contributor

After a recent Windows 11 update, my desktop background and theme colors were unexpectedly altered - causing some frustration. Furthermore, I've encountered an error upon startup, manifested as a popup message stating "Failed to create shell notification". The desktop photo, depicting an adorable tiger cub, while nice, was not my intended choice.

Hello,

Suggest you to run System File Checker scan:

1. Search for 'command prompt' using Cortana or Windows Search.

2. From results, right click on Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.

3. Type sfc /scannow command and press Enter key.

4. Let the command complete and then reboot the machine.

If that doesn't works, try these steps:

1. Search for 'windows powershell' using Cortana or Windows Search.

2. From results, choose Windows PowerShell and select Run as administrator.

3. Then type/paste following and press Enter key:

Repair-WindowsImage -Online -RestoreHealth

4. Let the command complete, restart your system then.

Let us know if this helps!
