Where are the pictures stored for the desktop backgrounds. A friend had a
family photo as a background and has lost the original, would it still be
retrievable?

TIA

Go to Start Run and type "regedit". Then navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop or HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control
Panel\Desktop and check the Wallpaper parameter in the right hand
pane.
