Windows 10: changing backgrounds on windows 10

My problem is this.When using Windows 7 Home Premium, when I wanted to change the display background, I simply went to the background setting, and either checked the photos that I WANTED to use, or UN-checked the photos that I DONT want to use.The problem, with Windows 10 is that such an option does not appear to exist.Each time I try to access "Change Backgrounds", Windows 10 take me to my photo library, NOT to the backgrounds that I have downloaded. The computer has NO directions, presented in HUMAN English, about how to access the Change Backgrounds function.At the present time,
