Classic desktop background & color personalization to control panel
I would like to add Classic Desktop Background and Classic Color and Appearance shortcuts to the control panel (since links go to the new settings options instead) using the shortcuts from the tutorials below:
Create Desktop Background shortcut in Windows 10
Create Color and Appearance shortcut in Windows 10
to create registry files that resemble the one in the personalization shortcut from the tutorial below:
Add Personalization to Control Panel in Windows 10
In other words, I want to modify the registry file below but specifically for classic desktop background and color and appearance shortcuts. Classic Desktop background open command is
explorer shell:::{ED834ED6-4B5A-4bfe-8F11-A626DCB6A921} -Microsoft.Personalization\pageWallpaper
and classic color and appearance commend to open is
explorer shell:::{ED834ED6-4B5A-4bfe-8F11-A626DCB6A921} -Microsoft.Personalization\pageColorization
How would I do that? I can figure out how to substitute the CLSID codes but I don't really know any of the other lines. Can you please help? Thanks!
