Self-Obsession
Hie,
I have a strange kind of problem. I keep all my wallpapers in the My Pictures directory and use the thumbnail view. Earlier on right clicking any thumbnail it showed up "Set as desktop background" option in the right clickmenu, but from the past few days the option has dissappeared. I don't know how but it has.It was a pretty simpler way to change the desktop background but now i need to open it in the image viewer, every time i need to change the background.

Please help.
Thanx :p

You have to customize your folder.

Here's how u do it......

Open the My Pictures Folder, Right Click & then Click on Customise this folder.

In the new Pop Up Window.......

What kind of folder do you want?

Use this foder as template:

& select Pictures (best for many files)

Click on Apply > OK

& your done.

Now you can right click on the thumbnail & click on Set as Desktop Background. Try different folder settings for different Kinda folders (Videos , Pictures, Documents...)
