Windows 7 picture library folders problem

alison74

I have a new pc and has windows 7, which I generally love, but everytime I go to attach a picture to a file, or upload one to a website, is asks where I want to take it from.

I click on libraries and then pictures, but ALL folders, I have ever created are there, sometimes taking me ages to scroll down to the bottom ones I want. If I do click on one of the old folders (which I know I have deleted) is says the file no longer exists.

Does anyone know how to change this layout? What my problem is? In my pictures when I go into it normally (when not searching for a photo to attach) it has the 6 folders I actually do have - but the other way shows 40+ folders, 34 of which no longer exist.

Thanks in advance

Click on libraries.

Then right-click on pictures and select 'properties'
Remove all the folder locations, rebuild and then add the folder again.

Really appreciate your help, but the old folders are still there when I re add them?

Anyone else offer any help? Everytime I search for answers on google, it's all about uninstalling the libraries feature, but I don't want to go down that line (or if it would solve it).

Thanks
