[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1501856"] toMACsh is sadly incorrect. It is the same. The Desktop refreshing EVERYTHING on it, all the way into sub-folders. The solution to this, luckily, is dead easy. Move the stuff off the desktop! You can make an ALIAS of your folder(s) and put THAT on the desktop if you like, that won't affect speed. You can also put that folder or folders away somewhere on your disk (say Documents) then drag it to the Dock and it will be right there. I right-click and change the display to suit my tastes but I have one-click access to everything I need that way, without clutter or slowdown. [/QUOTE]
