This didn't work for me either. I keep deleting the associated keys and they keep reappearing. Any ideas?

I followed the directions and it worked for some of the backgrounds; however, some of the ones I want to delete are not associated with any keys. Also, once I deleted the keys, it stopped making new ones for new backgrounds I add in. This is a problem because once I want to delete them well.... I can't.
Did I do something wrong here??

Thanks for your help!

VG, how do I know which registry to remove?

-Images:
(Default)
ID0
ID1
ID2
ID3
-KnownFolders
(Default)
--0
(Default)
---Windows Wallpapers
(Default)
----MergeFolders
(Default)
C:\Windows\Globalization\MCT\MCT-US\Wallpaper (can't find that folder though...)

Also on Win7 x64

Thank you

Hi VG. In location you have shown, I get all hex values which dont give understandable terms even with edit binary data option. Any suggestions?? Running Win7 home x64.

^^ Type "regedit" in RUN or startmenu searchbox and press Enter. It'll open it.
