I am trying to determine where the file is that Windows
uses to get its background jpegs, HTML doc., for use as a Wallpaper. Selecting from the desktop, rt click: Active Desktop|Customize my Desktop|Background Tab, a list is given of available wallpapers. I thought the list might be "My Pictures" in "My Documents." I moved a jpg into that folder and it showed up as a new file in the available wallpaper backgrounds. I pulled it out and it disappeared from the backgrounds. Next, I removed from the My Doc. folder the entire "My picture" file, renamed it and moved it to another disk. Still, its contents are coming up as the wallpaper backgrounds. I gave one of the pictures in the renamed folder a different name: it showed up in the Background Wallpapers with the old name and the picture would come up. I changed the extension of that jpeg and it stilled showed up in the Background|Wallpaper selections, with the same name, but now the picture was broken. -progress-- So my question is, where is the folder/files that Active desktop uses for background wallpapers and how do I edit it? Is it a registry list somewhere? Any kb on this? Thanks, Bob |
