Active desktop recovery is one of those errors you wish never existed. It’s not a showstopper but definitely annoying. I’ve run across this issue various times throughout computer tech career. I’m not sure what causes this error but it could be virus or spyware related. It could also be one of the weird Microsoft errors that happens just because it’s a Microsoft product (you know exactly what I’m talking about). Normally I would tell you to reboot your computer and try again. Chances are, you’ve already restarted your computer many times and that’s how you got here.
Below are four different fixes that might help you restore active desktop. You will need to restart your computer after each fix and see if it resolves your active desktop recovery error. Please comment whether it resolved your computer issue or not!
Solution #1
1. This is by far the easiest fix if it works!
2. Click the “Restore my Active Desktop” button.
3. Reboot computer
Solution #2
This is probably the easiest fix. Copy and paste the below in notepad and save as fix.vbs on your desktop. Run the file and reboot your computer!
HKEY_CURRENT_USER = &H80000001
strComputer = “.”
Set objReg = GetObject(“winmgmts:\\” & strComputer & “\root\default:StdRegProv”)
strKeyPath = “Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\SafeMode\Components”
strValue = “0″
ValueName = “DeskHtmlVersion”
objReg.SetDWORDValue HKEY_CURRENT_USER, strKeyPath, ValueName, strValue
Solution #3
- Go to Run, type regedit and hit enter
- Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\SafeMode\Components
- Select the value DeskHtmlVersion
- Select the Decimal radial button
- Change the value of 272 to 0
- Most of the time it might take a few seconds for your background to appear and other times…you might need to restart your computer.
Solution #4
- Open an explorer window or My Computer
- Tools
- Folder Options
- View
- Uncheck Hide protected operating system files
- Now do a search for desktop.htt…it should be on your C: normally
- Delete any desktop.htt files you find (there could be more than one depending on how many user profiles are on the machine) They should be located in Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer
- Close all windows you have open
- Now reboot your PC..Windows will recreate desktop.htt for you and it should work!

as a Windows user myself, i encounter problems like this once in a while. and oh, man… it’s so frustrating when this problem occurs. this is perhaps the best advantage of Linux over Windows. in Linux, script errors and virus attacks seldom happen. in fact, i haven’t encountered one.
Hi Jessie…thanks for stopping by!
That’s what I hear about Linux from others as well. I have never used linux before and I’d like to start, but I don’t know where to begin.
hi,
one thing i’ve noticed is that this problem mostly occurs on user’s who have just installed Internet Explorer 7. Personally i think the two are linked.
Hi – I have same problem and followed your instructions to get rid of the ‘active desktop recovery programme’ and all fine up to No 6 – now search for desktop.htt
- It should be on your C: normally – and I cannot locate C;
Please can you help me
James

To James Hill
I’m not sure…I am not a tech support specialist….I just post issues that I come across and how I fixed them. If my fix doesn’t work for you…..then there’s nothing else I can do for you.
To Jason
Sounds like spyware to me….I suggest calling a local tech support specialist and pose them the question. I just post issues that I come across and how I fixed them. If my fix doesn’t work for you…..then there’s nothing else I can do for you.
Congrats Ashley Foster!
to whom it may concern, my steps are ending at number 7. after documents and settings/ there’s no user, application data/microsoft/internet explorer.
So I can’t fix the problem yet. Would you have an advice?
Kind regards berend van meerlo
This is excellent. I also got similar error. I tried all your steps (including the Regedit as given. It worked out well.
I really Don’t know what to do
Thank you very much! It fixed my issue.
Hi,
I have been having the same problem for days. I tried the first set of directions removing desktop.htt. This did not work for me and my other issue is that when this all happened it took off all the liks on my start menu. I don’t have a run link anymore. Does anyone know how else I could try to fix this issue. I may be beyond fixing it myself and have to bring it to a PC repair man.
Thanks for any suggestions

trying to get active desktop recovery off my computer for 2 weeks, Nothing
I do works, WHAT IS REGEDIT? Some of you have mentioned, Please tell me,
This is making me lose sleep HELP!!
Betty V.
Betty,
Go to “Start” then “Run” …in the box….type regedit and hit Ok
that’s how you access regedit
I would be very careful using it if I were you. If something were to be deleted that shouldn’t be deleted, you’re computer might not properly work anymore. Just Google it and do some research.
Thank’s for the warning about REGEDIT, I’ve tried everything on google, about
ACTIVE DESKTOP RECOVERY, To no avail, I’ll keep checking.

I have the same problem. i have been trying everything i know to solve the problem. Originally i thought i had 2 desktop. and i was trying to find out how to just make it one. Because when i turn on the computer while it’s booting up, i see the desktop with it’s background, the task bar at the bottom with the necessary buttons, the only thing i don’t see are the icons i have on the desktop. then i get this other desktop screen comes up with all the icons and a white screen telling me to restore active desktop recovery. i just tried the first method, nothing happens, i tried the regedit method. i don’t know what to say, i still have the 2 desktop screens, the first is the same as i describe earlier and the second screen is blue with only the icons in the background. can you help me. i’ve tried everything.
I wish there was a way that i can show you what i mean, if it’s possible i can record on my digital camera how the computer boot up and email it to you. that way you can see what i’m trying to describe.

If you are having problems finding the Desktop.htt file, check:

Мне показалось,что слабо.
regedit (registry editor) worked well for me to eliminate the active desktop recovery problem. Thanks!!!! The DeskHtml file I found and changed to 0 was located under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\Components and did not include the safemode folder.
I am having trouble reestablishing my start menu (Windows XP Media Center Edition SP2). Any suggestions??
Correction to last thread safemode folder is correct.

Please help !!!!
How to fix desktop recovery issu e
To fix it go Start >Run, type and enter regedit
Go to this key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\SafeMode\Components
Change the value of DeskHtmlVersion to zero instead of decimal 110
Many thanks.The desktop.htt did not work for me but the regit solution solved it.Thanks again to all who contribute these solutions.
I have the same issue (active recovery screen, exception error, etc, but with a new twsit – my screen alternates back and forth between this screen and the jpg image wallpaper I’ve chosen for my destop – it alternates back and forth about every 5 seconds. I’m using IE7 and Windows XP Home, SP3.
Does anyone have any insight into this??
I have tried everything on here and nothing works what else should I try.
Well, after trying to delete desktop.htt, and making the suggested changes to the registry (neither of which worked for me), I installed and ran Windows Defender – it found 2 “severe” risks, removed them both, an volia, problem solved!
change registry key to 0 instead 272 look like solve my problem
but the problem appear again on the next boot, so i have to change DeskHtmlVersion key again again and again everytime my computer run.
So i created small program to set DeskHtmlVersion to Zero Decimal and you must make it run every time my computer start and make DeskHtmlVersion keep to Zero Value.
I upload this file to rapidshare so download it guys…
http://rapidshare.com/files/183577437/DeskHtmlVersionToZero.rar.html
just follow this step :
1. Download and extrak the arcive, you will see DeskHtmlVersionToZero.exe and you have to make it to run on every time computer start, so follow next step.
2. Copy DeskHtmlVersionToZero.exe to C:\WINDOWS\system32\
3. Type regedit on StartMenu > RUN
4. Goto HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
5. Create String Key, give it name DeskHtmlVersionToZero
6. Fill The Value with C:\WINDOWS\system32\DeskHtmlVersionToZero.exe
7. Restart Computer.
8. To Check it, type msconfig on StartMenu > RUN, goto startup tab, you will see DeskHtmlVersionToZero on your startup program.
9. And Check that Your DeskHtmlVersion Keep in Zero Value.
If u like it please give me comments
Hi hI had a problem when trying to uncheck “Hide protected operating files”. The instructions say go to Tools, then Folder Options, then view. But when I click Tools it doesn’t give me anything that says Folder Options. It only says “Map network drive…” “Disconnect network drive…” and “Synchronize…” How do I get to folder options?
Here is what it looks like.

@ELECTRIX
Wow! your method works flawlessly!
i have the same problem, even i use that registry method…
Well, those registry method only works if i restart my computer, but when my windows 1st starts, those white background always pop-up…
Since those registry method is automatically activated everytime my windows starts, there is no more those white background…
Thanks a lot, ELECTRIX!
Wellcome Dude….
upsss….
I forgote one thing..
This small program created with Visual Studio 2005 that use FrameWork 2.0…
So If u have problem to run this program, try to instal Frame Work 2.0…..
@ryan..
I think your computer infected by virus….
that virus modified your registry key to hide your folder option menu…
Don’t waste your time to delete dekstop.htt, it’s useless..
try to change DeskHtmlValue to Zero Decimal.
This didn’t work for me, I still can’t get this off my computer! Thanks for the attempt!!
I can’t get the Active Desktop Recovery off my screen.
Hello,
Thnx for all for giving correct solution to solve this problem
With Regards,

i cant solve my problem to recover active desktop.
pls send me another methode
THis didn’t work, any other ideas?
this solution did not wok
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\SafeMode\Components
Change the value of DeskHtmlVersion to zero instead of decimal 272.
After doing above change just refreshed & my problem of active desktop recovery got solved.
Thanx.
That fixed it thanks!
I did what you said to do above, but the only files that came up in the search were “desktop” without the .htt
Is this what I’m looking for, or must it specifically be named “desktop.htt”
Please let me know as soon as possible as I need to get my desktop back.
Thanks,
Mary
1- take a copy of the file C:\WINDOWS\Web\SafeMode.htt and clear it
2 – go to the file C:\Documents and Settings\#username#\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop.htt and change the background color

I’m on a school server and have very limited rights there. Is there a process that you have to kill or start that will end the Desktop Recovery forever?
Thanks in advance.

could not find desktop.htt in Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer.
Very useful tips! It fixed my problem too! Thank you very much!
thanks so much. i followed the instruc. for regedit and i restored my desktop!! You guys are great.
I did the “regedit” process, and it worked great! However, after doing this, it made my Internet Explorer go offline. Now, of course I made sure the “Work Offline” option was NOT checked, and it wasn’t. Any ideas as to why it canceled my internet? I changed the values to ZERO, so I’m hoping that changing the background values did not mess up my Internet Explorer.
Hi i have same problem ,any one give some solution for us
Hi,
It solved my problem….
I was unable to find that file desktop.htt
I just replaced that with another users file which was working fine.
This solved my problem.
Thanks a lot…
I tried all the above and the one that worked for me came from….
sam December 3, 2008 6:00 pm …Bring up Task manager End Process explorer.exe and then go to file..new task…explorer.exe
This did the Job for me and I hope it will for you!

I’m sorry but in my internet explorer there wasn’t any desktop.htt
:( exist another way to fix that problem?????
I Appreciate That Homie..
What should I do when I see the infornation active desktop recovery?
Hi
Having the problem of resetting the active desktop, I have followed the guideline below:
Run, type and enter regedit
Go to this key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\SafeMode\Components
Change the value of DeskHtmlVersion to zero instead of decimal 272.
But, I do not know how to change the value to zero instead of decimal 272.
Could someone please help?
Thanks, Aaron
not found folder.htt file anywhere

Dear All,

Did several searches. That file doesn’t come up anywhere.

Try fix #2
To Wahid
Try fix #2
To Cindy Cook
Try fix #2
great tip! Fix #2 did the job.
our support dept could only give the advise to re-install all software. Fortunately I did not follow their advise. So glad I found yr site!
Hey, I encountered the same error and I could not find desktop.htt in my windows explorer using the first method. But the second one worked immediately.
Thanks a lot for putting up this blog!
[...] Go here HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerDesktopSafeModeComponents [...]
Hey COMVICE…if you’re going to practically copy me word for word AND use the image that I made …on your blog…..at least ASK ME…..dipshit
This problem is your worse freakin nightmare. Microsoft has to know there is a problem so why don’t they fix it? I had to combine all the remedies suggested here to reboot successfully. No single remedy suggested here actually worked on it’s own. I’ve got two successful reboots now and am scared to press my luck with a third. Y’all please pray for me cause this is making me pull my hair out. I’ll never use IE again.
THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU, Fix #2 worked for me after I rebooted! <3 Thank you!!!
Thanks man, this is work.
At the moment, I just wanted to state that I wasn’t expecting a solution for this problem quite easily by just searching for it on google. Really Surprised. At the moment fix#1 hasn’t worked for me…hopefully fix#2 will! PLEASE WORK!
thank u.this message lot of help to me.
I have had this problem for almost a year. If I go to the net, and right click a picture, I can set it as my background. If I try to modify my desktop background though, I get the Active Desktop Recovery page that is all screwed up again.
Thanks! The regedit solved the problem (after restart)
Hi
The second FIX really worked. I was living with this problem for quite some time till date.
Thansk a lot.
Sarva
This worked like a dream for me! I used the second tip and once I reapplied my desktop, it seemed as though it took this time! -That’s without rebooting my computer. I suggest to anyone to try this!
Thank you very much!
I have searched in C drive but there are no any desktop.htt file.
Thanks Fix #2 worked for me
Yes fix # 2 worked for me ,,, took me a while to figure out that HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\SafeMode\Components
once you find HKEY_CURRENT_USER you click on it,, and scroll until you see the word Software,click on it and scroll and find the word Microsoft ,, just keep doing that until you get to the last word Components once you click on it then look to the box to your right and just follow from there , I think that is why other people were having problems getting it, Thanks ever so much for the help
thanks a lot it really helped me fixing the trouble.
FIX #2 worked.
Excellent job on this! Fantastic explanation!

exertime I close this window out the IE 8 Just reloads and I cant ever close out a session with IE 8 I end up using the task manager to try to close down the extra pages that then pop up and wind up shutting the whole computer off at the on off switch. Please help me with this problem before I go MAD!!!
Thanks.
thanks.. It realy helped for me(FIX #2)
Hi,
Thanx for ur solutions first fix didnt worked for me but second worked out.
Thanks once again
I tried #1 which did not work but #2 did work. My desktop is back again. Much appreciated.
I did two ways. 1/ Deleted 3 (three) desktop.htt files.
2/ Changed decimal 272 to 0
restarted computer and WORKED….
thank you very much every one …..
restore my avtive dewsktop
Second method worked good. In addition click on a blank area on your desktop and hit F5 to refresh the screen. There is no need to reboot. I didnt’ find the HTT files on my C: drive so I did not try method 1. Thanks.
vakano asi es q se aprende ojala siguan asi muchachos muchas gracias por esas ayudas
Tried both methods successfully on two different PC’s. Fix #2 is seems to be more effective. Anyways, Thanks a lot and keep up the good work.
Best Regards
Ghazali
Thank you so much, Fix #2 worked great!
Thanks so much for the help. Could not open desktop.htt file (fix 1) due to server restrictions, but Fix 2 worked perfectly. Thanks again.

Thnx buddy. It was very helpful.Finally I got rid of it. Ufffffff.fff.f……f…..Thnx again
I had the active desktop recovery problem also. I changed the background on my desktop and the white screen and error message dissappeared. I haven’t rebooted yet so I don’t know if this is a temp fix or permanent.
Buen artículo

Really thanks Alot I applied solution#3 As the machine was in domain environmet.
Question Any idea when windows seven takes time to load the profile with black screen ( it takes at least 10 mnts to load the background with the desktop ).
thanks
Solution number 3 fixed the issue. This error keeps happening time and again. The computer is an old one that runs windows xp pro with SP3. To make matters worse the computer is in another country so I have to remote it every time. Thanks for the solution. If you have any idea why it might happen let me know. The computer does not get used for anything but e-mail and skype calls and a little web surfing.
Hi,
Solution number 3 worked just fine for me after restarting my computer. I can’t believe this worked. After months of trying to figuire out how to fix this. You sir are a Genius.
P.S. I love you…lol
I also encountered that prob
even if i go to start… run redegit… nothing will come out…
HELP!!!
Thanks a Lot Solution 3 Worked for me…..
