Trying to click the "desktop" image in a Internet Explorer "Choose file to upload" window

I tried the image recognition and it worked two weeks ago, but now it's not clicking on the button...
Is there a better way to automate this process..


Image upload Internet Explorer Window is already open. (Got this far :)


Click "Desktop"
Double Click on "Specific Folder"
Click on "photo one" (By image recog. or recommended method)
Click "Open"

Then reopen the Image upload Internet Explorer Window
re-do process, but select "photo two" instead...

I'd be more inclined to use GetFileList to get the list of files in the folder, then enter each path and filename as you loop through all the files.
