Question Where is my original wallpaper?

[kit_inc]

I used an old picture as my wallpaper on my Android phone (a Redmi Note 10 Pro running Android 13). It was used for both the lock screen and the home screen. I set a new picture for my lock screen, and I don't like it. I want to switch back to the old picture, but I don't have a copy of it anymore on my computer. So the only copy of the old picture is my home screen wallpaper. Can someone tell me where is that picture stored on my phone? I want to restore it to my lock screen and transfer a copy to my PC for backup.

Welcome to Android Central! If you set a custom wallpaper, that image gets saved to a protected system directory that the user typically can't access. You can try using an app like this to extract it: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dk.appdictive.getcurrentwallpaper&hl=en_US
