I am having a problem with all my pictures and documents going into the the
desktop background. How do I stop this and also delete the ones that are
already there. Thank you.

Move and rename the folder? Simple enough.

Hi,

If you are saving your pictures in the My Documents > My Pictures, they will
be included for desktop wallpaper. Best thing to do is create a new picture
folder in My Documents or a new folder in another location and place your
pictures there. Then they will not be accessable for wallpaper.
