    Do you mean you set it directly from the internet or something? If so, I know Firefox saves it under C:Users[your name]AppDataRoamingMozillaFirefox. If you’re using another browser it might be different.
    If you can’t find it, go to the Desktop background screen and it should show the location of the file. It is already saved somewhere on your computer…the trick is finding it.
    Hope this helps!

    the problem here is quite obvious
    You Are A ******* Retard.
    If you have an image set as your desktop then it must be saved on your computer somewhere
    Now the fun bit.
    Find it.
    if you go to the desktop tab in the display properties menu, select your current desktop and then click “browse” it might show you the directory the file is in, but this does not always work.
    If you have just set an image you found in the internet as your desktop it might be overwritten by the new one if you do the same thing again. but this all depends on the browser you are using.
    But anyway. the file is on your computer somwhere.
    Back it up somewhere safe.
    Happy hunting.

    C:Documents and SettingsusernameApplication DataMicrosoftInternet Explorer
    under there should be a Internet Explorer wall paper if thats where you got it from.
    Before you try finding Application Data folder. you need to goto tools> folder options>view tab>hidden files and folder>check the box “show hidden files and folders” then ok out…

    C:Users**YOUR ACCOUNT NAME**AppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindows Photo Gallery
    Should work for Vista.
    Don’t know about XP.
