Here is how to do it. Its already been posted, but this is the definitive answer:
-Search your drives for *.bmp
-Find the one that matches your background
-Note the last 3 characters before the .bmp - mine was called phccekj0e3cn.bmp
-Search your drives for the last 3 characters noted in previous step. in my case I searched on *3cn
-This search resulted in 4 files for me.
-Go to your task manager, look under the processes tab, and find the process that matches the name of one of the files you are trying to delete (the .exe file)
-end the process - mine was called lphccekj0e3cn.exe
-delete all files found in your search
-reboot and you should have your display tab back for background right-click -> properties
-if you do then you are good to go. set your background and don't let other people who have no clue (most people) use your computer
