Ok this is a really easy prank that can scare the shit out of your friends w/o totally f***ing up their computer (im describing it as if u use XP)
1. Make sure no programs are running so the bottom/side/top bar is empty besides the start button
2. When the screen is empty press Print Scrn button(sometimes it has the words sysrq on the key too).
3. After that put all of the shortcuts on the desktop into the recyclin bin but dont empty the recyclin bin jus so it will be gone temporarily ..also put that main program bar all the way down so it is not visible
4. Next open paint and press ctrl-v (paste) in the middle of the screen. The picture of the desktop should be there, includin the shortcuts of all the programs on the desktop
5. after that go to File/Set as Background (centered)
Now the desktop should look exactly the same...except for the fact that all the programs on the desktops arent really there...and the start menu bar thing is also not there...they will be stumped for hours whether that their computer is frozen or what
p.s. plz vote fairly, sry its choppy im in a hurry, im almost positive no one has used this b4 and it has not been copied from a website
