| screensaver tab missing; unable to run regedit My screensaver tab is missing from control panel display. I found the fix pasted below, and the data value is indeed "1", but when I change it to zero, I get the following error message: "Cannot edit NoDispScrSavPg: Error writing the new value's contents." Can anyone help restore my screensaver tab? The fix I tried: Start > Run > Regedit > > Navigate to > > HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\System > > If there is a DWoRD Value called "NoDispScrSavPage" with a data value of 1 > this will disable the screen saver tab. Change the value to 0 to > see the tab again. |
