Just thought I would update on the status. After a week of not changing anything I have discovered the desktop tab has gone back to the way it was originally. When I clicked on it, it opened up promply and the only files shown are the default windows wallpapers. There are no pictures from "My Pictures".
Almost everyone thought that "My Pictures" was tied into the desktop tab. I knew after many years of changing my desktop wallpaper I had never had that come up and now somehow it has been fixed.
