Deleting previous wallpapers

[daherlihy]

Everytime I go to Settings > Display > Wallpaper > Home and/or lockscren > Wallpapers, it shows me wallpapers which I've used previously at the bottom in the horizontal scroll bar.

Where are these stored on the device so that I can delete them permanently? Using Android Marshmallow, if that helps ...

Settings > Display > wallpapers > Home and Lockscreen > what do you select next? 

Album?

Live Wallpapers?

Photos?

Xperia wallpapers? 

[daherlihy]

Just Wallpapers - I can send you a screenshot or recording if you wish?

Here's the link to the video on my Google photos: https://goo.gl/photos/mp1txZ9owQHEKWoq8

All the wallpapers at the bottom are previously used wallpapers, which I'd like to clear of the device

You are not supposed to see so many options 

it should be Settings > Display > wallpaper > Home & lock screen > 

Album

Live Wallpapers

Photos

Xperia wallpapers 

Most likely this is due to the third party apps:

Google home launcher

ES file explorer

Glif

Apex Wallpapers, Click UI, Glim Lite, Iride UI, Live, Moonshine, Nova wallpaper, Polycon, QuickPic Wallpaper, rewun, rondo, sense glass, smoke and glass, steelicons, etc etc etc

Thanks for the help so far - however the above directory only contains the system default wallpapers, it doesn't contain the previously used wallpapers that keep appearing at there bottom inside the Wallpapers option.

As for all the options appearing, theses are displaying presumably from the installation of launchers and icon packs.

@daherlihy

When you say at the bottom are you referring of the list of the other third party apps? you might have to clear the app data of those apps and/or create a nonmedia file on them, but that might create other issues.

I mean the wallpapers appearing in the horizontal scroller

If I knew the location of the wallpapers first, that would be a start the red ones originally came from my download folder and were deleted since. The others to the right came from icon packs, some of which were uninstalled. So clearing app data won't resolve either
