How to Delete Wallpaper
The Windows and Mac operating systems come preloaded with a set of wallpapers, or desktop background pictures. You can also set any desired image as the background, whether it's a personal photo or a downloaded picture. It's easy to delete a wallpaper file, either preset or customized, in a few mouse clicks.
