    Ok, well the Goal was to end up in the root of your drive, so double clicking on your desktop icon will suffice.
  2. WanderingAries
    This is the desktop on my Mini:

    And now my caffeine filled brain just quoted SW: "Jar-Jar, you are to be puuunished" This is my Desktop to sort things out. Note, this MBP boots to Mojave, Catalina, and Big Sur, so there's one per Installation.

    I mean, it's not like we aren't being Pun-ished as it is already...

    If you have the settings like this where the HDD/SSD is on the desktop, then in My case I have a drive labeled "Big Sur" and when I open it, I get the above.
  6. WanderingAries
    Like this, into oblivion essentially (drag and hold outside the window)
  7. WanderingAries
    You...have to... In My case it's located inside of Big Sur
  8. WanderingAries
    So then it's JUST that folder, that's progress

    Also, I was able to do the following that "Might" help Drag the Applications folder out of the list on the left (when in a Finder window) Use Command + Up Arrow to goto the root folder Opened up Big Sur (in my case) Dragged the Applications folder Back onto the list on the left

    Mind you, I've done it a billion more times than most on here I'm sure without issue, but it's "possible" that with all the drag/drop/move/delete/etc we've corrupted the file that handles the Finder's sorting for that folder. What happens when you use Command + N (new finder window) and click on say the downloads folder on the left?
  11. WanderingAries
    I still don't see the file myself, but... Try this: Delete Finder preferences using Finder Open a Finder window and navigate to Home > Library > Preferences folder. Trash the file com.apple.finder.plist. If you are using Mac OS X 10.3 or later, also trash the Finder Sidebar preferences file, com.apple.sidebarlists.plist. Perform one of the following tasks: ... Empty the Trash.

    In my case, that means: //Big Sur/library/preferences/com.apple.finder.plist But I'm not seeing that file and because those are Old comments, it may be different on Big Sur
  13. WanderingAries
    Yeah, that's the shortcut to open that folder BTW, so there's a Finder corruption somewhere

    And read through here for the Finder problem https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2809544
  16. WanderingAries
    No, it doesn't need that
  17. WanderingAries
    While I'm looking, what happens when you click on your desktop and then press? Shift + Command + A
  18. WanderingAries
    That is the folder that Win creates during the initial installation. Without that, nada...I think, wait, that might be Island Rum. Let me test.
  19. WanderingAries
    Ugh, you're still having that issue...that may be part of the problem.
  20. WanderingAries
    Curious, do you have this folder? It's the hidden one.
  21. WanderingAries
    The Z is a virtual reference to the drive in a way that Wine (I think I'm right here) understands.
  22. WanderingAries
    This is why. This is where it's Actually aiming for. And funny enough, now I see why my icons keep getting messed up when I toggle to Big Sur on this MBP. 😛
  23. WanderingAries
    It's not because the path is Relative-ish
  24. WanderingAries
    Something else is going on...hmm Click on the launcher and click the "-" button below the list to remove it Goto the Accessibility section and do the same Run the launcher again

    Most of the problems people have been having on ANY computer is the AV messing with the process. >.<
