    Hey Guys I recently had this same problem on my computer, at the same time I found a Windows Optimizer program on my computer running in the background and telling me I had 2399 errors on my pc. I never installed such a program and immediately uninstalled it, after uninstall I ran a virus scan using Avast free virus scanner and picked up multiple viruses and removed them. Desktop reverted to normal as well as system properties page. Just a helpful hint for any having this problem try a simple VIRUS SCAN first

    You should also run a decent malware scanner - MalwareBytes Anti-Malware will often find things that a conventional virus scanner misses.

    Thank you Wildcat40019, we appreciate you sharing your experience.

    I am marking this thread a Answered.  Unfortunately, I can't mark your post (the first post of a thread) as the Answer, so I  have marked Noel's post as the Answer, instead.  I just wanted you to know the reason why I did it that way.
