Q: Finder not showing "set as wallpaper" action
This is a really weird problem, but for some reason Finder isn't giving me the option of setting a picture as my wallpaper. I have no clue why it's happening. Here's an image of the menu that pops up. http://imgur.com/a/uUgNU
I've tried killing Finder.app and Dock.app, messing with the desktop settings, using jpegs and pngs, and even different filesystems, and nothing has worked. The only way I can change the wallpaper is through the desktop settings.
The only thing that I think may have impacted anything is me using the command
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to set picture of every desktop to ("/Volumes/untitled/Pictures/Wallpaper/wall.jpg" as POSIX file as alias)' which was recommended as a command to switch wallpapers, and worked, but may have messed something up. Is there anything I can to do fix finder? I'm using El Capitan 10.11.6, and Finder version 10.11.4 on an early 2015 Macbook Air.
MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
