Windows 10: Saved image desktop backgrounds

What is the directory in Windows 10 in which a selected image (after being applied to desktop background) is saved?

How to delete the Background images in Windows 10

I'm confused. Here's a simple solution.

Select the swimming image as your desktop background.

Now select the running image as your desktop background.

Now select the Windows 10 logo image as your desktop background.

Open MSPaint. Make a smiley face. Save it out as one file. Go to the Settings :: Personalization :: Background page again. Browse to that smiley face. Set that as your background.

That bad fifth "trees" image should be gone now. Is it?

 

how do i change the background color of an image ?

If you want a white background, the only real way to achieve this is to create a new image the same resolution of your desktop (e.g 1920 * 1080 at 96dpi) in you image editor (Paint, Photoshop . . . etc.), Make wure the whole image is white, save the image
and set it as your background image . . .

 

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Themes
and save as TranscodedXXX without file extension

 

Sry.. No have been there. That is default Windows 10 themes.. that directory does not even host the Windows themes that you download when adding more through the windows systems "get more themes online" let alone the personal single desktop pictures that you store ( which is what im asking the directory for )... However, thank you for your time.

Edit: save a picture off google to your desktop, then set that picture as your background, then delete that picture from where you saved it (your desktop), then notice that that picture is still your background, then try to find out how to delete that from your system.. is what I am saying.

 

And that was my answer. You download a picture from the web to desktop, set it as background. Windows will take a copy of that image and put it in: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Themes
but rename it as TrancodeWallpaper. Now if you make a copy of it and put on the desktop, rename it as Transcodewallpaper.jpg, you'll see that image again.

So if you set your background with some other image, Windows will override TrancodeWallpaper with the new image.

 

The transcode name is what threw me. A good thing to know, thanks again!
