[QUOTE="rboseley, post: 893316, member: 105916"] [b]My previous ref to Apps Folder[/b] Perhaps I can bump this up a notch or two - disregard the username. I have since explained by dumb question of file structure. This one may be as bad. In the Apps folder - I can seem to get it out of my head - than only apps should be there. (Like only exe files in Windows). But I have folders which I presume to be related and required by the app. For example, I just downloaded a YouTube Downloader. The actually runnin app is called YTD.jar - but there are there other files within the folder - I pulled the YTD out. Couldn't the folder with the other files live someplace else? I can exteriment - but this is what I was getting at. One folder, named Utilities I assume should be in there. I have my printer setup folder. Also Dvix, flip4mac. I presume all this "stuff in my head" is a direct of my DOS days when every single file needed to be in a specific place. I'll do a Time Machine the "play" with moving some of this stuff around.
