[QUOTE="cradom, post: 1621302, member: 305283"] You DO NOT want to remove this. XARGS(1) BSD General Commands Manual XARGS(1) NAME xargs -- construct argument list(s) and execute utility This is part of the BSD sub-system and is needed. It is not a preference file. Think I would take whatever Drive Genius says with a grain of salt. Edit: Actually, looking at the error message it seems the command is not there? DG is using sh, a shell to do something and it "needs" xargs to do it. xargs should be in /usr/bin/. [/QUOTE]
