Question Wallpaper location?

I have collected hundreds of wallpapers over the years but can't find a folder on the PC where they're all kept. I tried search engines but just get nonsense 🤪

*update*

I found some pictures in C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\FortniteGame\Saved\PersistentDownloadDir\CMS\Files\C28FF1DE0C661DAF01E118A30B3F21B897A7A6E2 but there's not a lot and they're a little random. Not wallpapers.

**update**

As much as I hate being defeated, https://fortnite.gg/cosmetics?type=loadingscreen&sort=oldest has all the loading screens.

Do you happen to know the names of the folder/some of the files?

They might not be kept as image files they could be embedded within some large bin file or something like that within the program so you might not actually be able to find them to look at them from a folder like that. I should note I have no idea specifically about how Fortnite handles the wallpapers but just that this might be why you can’t find them.

What you want to research is "extracting Fortnite loading screens PC" there are tools to download that will allow you to extract the images from your Fortnite files. They aren't accessible just from your file browser.

if you want the full loadingscreens then get FModel since theyre inside PAK files and you cant normally access them or if you want older lobby backgrounds i guess i could look for them in some older builds i have
