W98 Desktop settings

Somehow I managed to delete the 'Windows standard' option in 'Control Panel/Display/Appearance/Desktop'. Stangely it is still there in a second 'profile' I run on this machine. I cannot find any file that even looks like this setting so I can transfer it to my primary profile. Does anyone know where it 'hides' and how to recover it? A re-install did not help!

Thanks TCS - I have a feeling I tried that but will give it another go. I guess the long-hand solution is to note all the settings for it in the other profile, and re-create it!

TCS - thanks for all the ideas. I went for the 're-create' option and I'm almost there.
