I was able to right click then copy an image or wallpaper to my desktop , but for some reason I'm unable to do it now.
 
If I see a pic. that I like, I would right click my mouse and in the list of options one would be " copy to desktop " , I don't have it now.
 
What operating system are you running? On windows 7 I see right click option to "set as desktop background"
 
I think it's browser based. Anyway, another option you have is the "Save Image As" option. Then, in the dialog that pops up, select your desktop as the destination.
 
Does the problem occur in Windows or Firefox?

If Firefox. Press and hold Shift while double clicking the Firefox icon. This should launch safe mode. Then try the right click save as, etc. If it works you may have an addon issue.

If this is in Windows you may have a registry issue or an Explorer issue. Not to be confused with Internet Explorer. In which case you should do a SFC /scan now to hopefully fix any Windows issues. To do this go to the Start orb. In the white box for search programs and files type in CMD. Right click CMD and run as administrator. Now type in the black DOS-like box SFC /scannow. Remember the space between SFC and the /scannow.
