I have 3 photos I downloaded from the internet that ended up in my control panel under my desktop wallpaper area. I can't seem to be able to delete them.
There has to go be a way to delete them. Anyone know how?
Thanks.  |

I found that C:/. But all I could find was the wallpaper that came with the computer. |

Right click the Start button then left click Explore in the menu that pops up.
In the left panel browse to the Local drive C:
On the toolbar containing buttons at the top click on the Search button.
In the left pane click on All files and Folders then in the next window type in one of the names you see in the list of pictures on the Desktop tab mentioned above.
Look in:should say Local hard drives C: or something similar.
Click on Search. Results will show up in the right pane. Once it's finished find the file on the right side and delete it.
