I have a folder in My Documents with photos I use for my desktop screen. The photos are divided by category sub-folders, i.e., aviation, family, scenery, etc.
Prior to the issue I'm posting about, if I powered down the computer, when I did a "cold" start-up, the desktop photo would always be the specific one selected when the computer was shut down.
About two weeks ago, this changed so that a specific photo in the Apple Desktop photos is picked at start-up. Nice photo but I'd rather see a smiling photo of one of my grand children!
There's nothing that I changed that I'm aware of to cause this problem, but I'll admit to cases of prior "operator error" on my part.
What can I do so that the selected photo at shut down is the one used for start-up as it was before?
In advance, thanks.
