Pics under the desktop background ?

Hi ... I have done a search on this topic but I didn't find a answer , So my problem is I just loaded some personal pics in " My Pictures " folder and I notice that they are also being shown as background pics under the display properties / Desktop tab , How can I remove pics from there ?

Thanks ?

move them out of mypics folder basically. the default locations for possible is windows and mypics.

i DO believe u can just create a sub folder and put them there and they'll not show unless u browse from them.

 

Hi ... Thanks for your assistance ... I have remove everything now from the " My Pictures " folder and I notice that they are still listed , Any other idea ? Thanks

 

where'd ya move em to?

create a folder c:\t1 and move them there. then test.


should also ask if u rebooted after move? try that first

 

I have move them to a different drive , They are not under my c drive , Actually my e drive and yes I have rebooted , Though I do remember once before I had this same problem , I saw a post about going somewhere but I can't remember , It wasn't my post either but , It did do the trick ...

 

from my observation, they appear to be 'cached' copies. so once u move them, they become phantoms. they sill 'appear' to be there but if u select them, they fail.

and from my test, once they fail, they dissappear from the list. so ... highlight em all and hit apply or browse and they'll fail and finally go away

 

This is odd I was messing around with the comp and I just rebooted again , When I got back up again I went to view this forum and I notice Skeet6961 post again , I went to try it out and this time the pics weren't listed , Thanks Skeet6961 for your help

 

glad to hear
