[QUOTE="NanoBite, post: 320828, member: 13565"] G'day Dannybex & welcome to Mac-Forums. Right/Control-click on the alias which you have on your desktop and select Get Info. In the General section you'll see: Kind: Size: Where: Created: Modified: Original: This is the one that's important here. It will tell you where the original folder resides. Once you've made sure that the original files are all present and available, it's quite safe to just Delete the Alias - which is just a link to the Original folder. [/QUOTE]
