The folder was already set to pictures and so I took it off. Then went in and
put it on again and selected to apply to all subfolders. It did the trick.
This indicates that there is something wrong with the saving of settings in

of windows where this type of steps having to be done corrects a small
corruption problem. I thought I had tried this but maybe not. Thanks for the
nudge in the right direction.
