[QUOTE="baggss, post: 238992, member: 6762"] I went back and copied/duplicated some files in Utilities and Apps and then deleted them. It did not require any authentication for me to move/delete them. Do a get info on your Apps folder and make sure that you have permission to read and write to it. If not, unlock it, it will ask for your password, and then give yourself the appropriate rights. Then click "Apply to Enclosed items" and then try deleting something and see what happens. By the way, it's spelled "ridiculous" not "redculous".. [/QUOTE]
