Hi
I have 6 pictures that I would like put on my desktop
Is it possible to have/alternate a different picture each day?

If so, how would I achieve that ?

Use a wallpaper changer (3rd-party software) to do this. Search the web for
"Wallpaper Changers Free" or something similar should get you there.

*NB For anyone who got the .cab file - I mention once that the wallpaper
directory is:

C:\WINDOWS\Wallpaper\Web

....when it is, of course;

C:\WINDOWS\Web\Wallpaper

....and I apologise about that profusely.
