[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1502981, member: 24160"] Like I said above and I cannot stress this enough... [B]DO NOT DELETE ANYTHING YOU DO NOT KNOW FOR CERTAIN WHAT IT IS[/B]. You are not going to be able to delete the .DS_Store files and if you do, the system is going to automatically generate a new one. That file, for instance the one on your Desktop, is where the information for what you have on the Desktop, the locations of icons on the Desktop, etc., is stored. [/QUOTE]
