[QUOTE="robduckyworth, post: 1241648, member: 184879"] Forgive me for going off topic from the OP, but vansmith's post has intrigued me. So, i quit Finder. As in, i use the terminal command to add "Quit finder" to the global menu: Then obviously the app itself quits. (the laptop icon is finder, i changed it. note: no LED underneath) [IMG]http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=15134&stc=1&d=1306277873[/IMG] it is now not present in Activity monitor. (arranged by process, alpahabetically, you can see no Finder) [IMG]http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=15135&stc=1&d=1306277994[/IMG] do you mean to say that background processes and daemons such as WindowServer etc are part of Finder, and cant be quit? because I don't see no Finder there :P [ATTACH=full]15134[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]15135[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
