I used to be able to change the background on my desktop with ease. Now I can't do it at all. Any suggestions? I do not get any error messages.

I go to Control Panel, Display, then choose to Browse. When I try to open a folder to select a picture the folder is empty. But I know there are pictures in there. Why is it blank?

What file types are in these folders???

.jpg files

I've always been able to use these. In fact, that is what is on my desktop now. I just want to change the picture.

Hello,
Could the pictures have been deleted by accident?
Have you tried using a restore point from say, a month ago?
Note, there is a difference between system restore and system recovery. Do not do a system recovery.

The pictures have not been deleted. Guess I can try restore.

Look for the option of restoring from an older restore point, about a month ago should work.
UNLESS you have just recovered from mal-ware.
If you need help with the restore please ask.
