    Cannot remove unwanted images from drop down list of available backgrounds. Where do they keep the images? (or the links to them)?
    I've tried the uSoft Knowledge Base with no luck. Right clicking in the available image list does not work.

    I do believe they are stored in the root of the windows folder.

    you will find them in this location.......

    C:\WINDOWS\Web\Wallpaper

    so there's two places. the wallpapers are there and the BMP files are in the root of Windows.

    Thanks, I had checked Wallpaper and they were NOT there - so I will check Windows root *.BMP

    Also some of those images will also be the ones in your my picture folder.

    to make your search easier for the ones found in the windows folder just

    right click arrange folders by type and then right click and show them in groups.

    it will make it a whole lot easier to find them since it will show all the files of the same kind together
