I've recently migrated my fathers user profile from one Macbook pro to another Macbook pro. Everything seemed to go fine (this was several weeks ago). But tonight he tells me that ever since the migration his Finder windows open with on the HD link in the side bar and column view in the main window.
I've (finally) found his preferences folder (in Mt Lion) and deleted his Finder preferences and Sidebar preference files. Emptied the trash. Logged out. Logged back in, and the same problems are there.
When I go back to the preferences folder the new plist files are there (with todays date) but the Finder windows are still stubborn and won't change. When I open the sider bar option in the Finder preferences menu most of the items are unchecked, and it won't let me check anything.
