My wife somehow integrated the photos into the wallpaper category
under desktop in display properties.
My question is how to remove all those pictures out of the wallpaper
section Thx in advance
====================================
You fail to mention your OS...the following
info is for WinXP.
By design, all images in your My Pictures folder
will be available in the Desktop Background list.
If you wish to remove your images from this list
all you have to do is move the images to a different
folder outside of the My Pictures folder. A New
Folder in My Documents...for example.
To move the contents of your My Pictures folder...
open the folder and go to...Edit / Select All...
In your "Picture Tasks" pane...choose "Move the
selected items"...
On your "Move Items" screen...choose or create
a new folder and left click the "Move " button.
I have noticed that if I exceed 100 images in My
Pictures the files no longer show in the Background
list. There may be a way to edit this number but I
don't know how.
If you wish to delete all the images in your My
Pictures folder...open the folder and go to...
Edit / Select All...
File / Delete...
When the dialog box says...
Are you sure you want to send these XX items to
the recycle bin?
Click "Yes".
