Well, I downloaded an app from the web called SuperDocker. There is an option to add a quit button to finder. I tried to test it out by clicking on it and relaunching finder. After I found out what It did to my finder, I immediately uninstalled it using AppCleaner. I want to show you the screenshots which are saved onto my desktop but I don't know how to. Someone please tell me how then I will upload the images.I use an app called DSWipe to get rid of .DS_Store files, but every time I start up my Mac the .DS_Store files seem to come back. The main reasons I am worried about this is if my hard drive becomes corrupt or when I put School work on my USB stick and it messes up the School System.Thanks in advance.

The .DS_Store files actually come back every 5-10 minutes.

They are supposed to be there, they're part of OS X, although they are usually hidden.
.DS_Store - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

To add an image to your post, upload to imgur.com or something similar, then paste the URL into your post with the image icon above the input field.
