MyPicturesSlideshow ScreenSaver Settings

[Guest Danger_Duck]

So, for my screensaver, I have "Use Picture in this Folder" as My Pictures.

Unfortunately, this includes not only the pictures pointed to in the

directory I specify (My Pictures), but also subfolders.

 

Is there any way to have the screensaver not look inside subdirectories, or

do I have to move any pictures I want displayed into a single directory

without subdirectories?

 

Also, where can I suggest to Microsoft that it should add the checkbox

"include pictures in subdirectories" to the settings?

 

Thanks

Create a new folder and copy the pictures you want for your screen saver to

it. In the Screen Saver tab, next to where you selected My Pictures

Slideshow, click the Settings button and select the new folder you created.

Only pictures in this folder will show.
