I managed to get the pictures that I wanted showing on folders in \My Pictures\, however, they are no longer there. How can they be 'stabilised' (made permanent) ?

Could you provide more information please?
I don't understand what your problem is or what needs doing.

The My Pictures folder in My Documents, can hold folders of photos. When these folders are displayed as TILES, by default they show 4 images selected from the contents of the folder. But that CAN be changed so that it shows an image that one may select. I have successfully done that. But now those selected images no longer display (nor does a default selection as before) Why have they disappeared - how can that be prevented ?

Basty, Instead of having the view set as Tiles for those folders change it to Thumbnails.

Didn't we tell you to do earlier what 13526 is now suggesting? Did it ever work?

It DID work. I wrote that in my post. But those pictures are no longer showing on the folder icon (TILE). Something (?) has removed them; whereas I want them to stay there permanently.

Basty, They won't show up if you have your View set as Tiles. Change the View to Thumbnails.

My apologies - I had looked on the wrong folder icons. The pictures which I had selected, are STILL on the folders where I put them. Phantom problem.
