Hi Phil,
The Media Library typically lists all media that has been uploaded to the site. You’re saying you have images in the media library that you did not upload?
Yes, exactly and I don’t have any WordPress plugins which could carry graphics and I am fearful I may have to delete each one individually, any ideas?
Thank you for coming back to me, it is appreciated
Phil
Well, you can delete them in bulk, but to be honest I’d be concerned about how they got there in the first place. Can you share a screenshot of the media gallery?
Hello
Thank you for coming back to me and yes it is a concern where they came from, I thought at first it was something WordPress were packaging with a release.
I did bulk delete over 100 last night and will repeat tonight but if you want me to hold off on that let me know.
I have put a video and screenshot in Dropbox, link below.

In the screen shot only the Microsoft logo and the one above were downloaded by me
Thank you for your continued help
Phil
If you change your view from tiles to list, there will be a column indicating where each image is “Attached” (which page or post it was uploaded/inserted to). You may want to review this list as it sounds like your site may have been infected with spam.
Hello
Thank you again, yes I think you are correct but all will be deleted tonight.
Your help is appreciated
Phil
