[QUOTE="6string, post: 1123306, member: 120039"] Go to user>library>preferences and delete com.apple.finder.plist and hopefully this fixes your mess. Repair disk permissions. reboot and see if you are back to good. Next step would be to reinstall that app and use the uninstaller if it has one, and if not, use AppCleaner to delete it which will find any left of mess. Failing that,, get onto the developers of that App. Failing all of that, I hope you have been vigilant with keeping time machine backups, and restoring back to before your trouble began. Finally, reinstalling OS X and staying away from these "questionable OS X altering applications" :) [/QUOTE]
