for some reason I have a list a mile long,,
how do we go about deleteing them,,
Microsoft tell you everything BUT that.
have been into C;Windows\Web\Wallpaper
but it only lists genuine MS ones.
a lot of them are jpgs with only numbers as descriptions,,,

You can safely delete all files from C:\WINDOWS\Web\Wallpaper (these are just default background pictures for windows desktop)
Also you can delete all the BMP files from c:\windows these are destop tile images.
The other images are located in the "my pictures" folder normaly located under
C:\Documents and Settings\(user name)\My Documents\My Pictures

Don't you just replace *.jpg in the search with the number that you have up in the desktop background list? xxxxx.jpg.give me a break guys,,

That should point you to one of the backgrounds, but most likely you've got them all saved in the same folder.

1. Right click on the Desktop
2. Select Properties
3. Select the Desktop tag
4. Highlight one of the files listed in the box under Background: (I assume this is where you are seeing the list as long as your arm)
5. With one of the evil ones highlighted select the Browse button.
The system with then open the folders at exactly where that file is saved.
Hope that makes sense
