Hi There,
All my pictures that i downloaded from the internet are in
my display properties browser box to use as wallpaper on my desktop.
The only problem is, when i did a system recovery the pictures were
gone, so i inserted a CD copy of my pictures in the CD drive and
selected the windows copy these files or something, the problem is that
i don't know how to transfer all the pictures back to the browser box
file within display properties. Could someone knowledgeable please give
me step by step instructions on how to do this?
Thank You Very Much For Your Help,
Willoughby

Copy them to one of the places wallpaper can be used.
(C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper may be the best)

BMP Files from C:\WINDOWS
BMP, JPG, GIF, JPE, DIB, PNG, HTM files from the following locations:
C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\My Pictures
(+subfolders)
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application
Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer
C:\Program Files\Plus!\Themes (+subfolders)

Hi There,
I appreciate your help but your answer is too technical
for me.
Thanks,

What's too technical?
It only requires you to copy from the CD to a folder.

Open the CD in Windows Explorer.
Open another instance of Windows Explorer.
Navigate to C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper
Drag the pictures from the CD to that folder.
