the user icon image folder on my computer. I'm wondering where to find the pictures where I can set my account picture to. sure I can change it and just print screen the pic to save the one I want, but I'd like to know where to find it. I run Windows 7 on a HP laptop. can anyone help me with this?
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\User Account Pictures\Default Pictures
Goto control panel - user accounts and click change picture OR
Click Start - Click on the user pic
A snip for u..
thank you, it helped but I still couldn't find the picture I was looking for.
I know how to change the account pic. I was just wondering where I could find the one I was using which by the way is this:
I was wondering where I could find that in the computer. but I can't seem to find it, not even in the default picture folder.
That icon is not a standard "Microsoft" icon, so if it's not in this folder....
It could be anywhere. So if you downloaded it, you'll need to remember where you put it, or where it is the system builder put it.
BTW have you checked you "Documents" folder? Or your "Picture" folder? It could be there.
The other thing you could do is a generic search for jpg or bmp in the "Start" then "Search programs and files" box.
Good luck.
It was a preprogramed image. Since I have an HP laptop, the HP image was the default image. I tried putting in the jpg, bmp, png, and gif in the search box but none of the pictures for the default gallery for the user image even showed up.
Said for the quote above yours, it shouldn't be a microsoft image since it was the default image for the HP laptop I have. and I had to try "user" in the search. I sort of found the picture but it was just from my contact info, no direct file. I may have to ask HP for help with this....
what about here?
C:\Windows\System32\oobe\info
EDIT: and btw, the location i first supplied IS the location for the question you originally asked!
