[QUOTE="Horsa, post: 1842145, member: 403905"] Hi Shelby, As you are not running Catalina, it's possible that some of these 32-bit "apps" are actually parts of the Operating System - parts that will be replaced by 64-bit equivalents in Catalina. If you highlight any one of these applications in the list, the info panel at the bottom will tell you the exact path to where it lives on the machine. Do be very careful what you delete, though! Deleting stuff that forms part of the OS could leave it crippled. Why are you keen to get rid of your 32-bit applications right now? Are you planning to upgrade to Catalina very soon? [/QUOTE]
