Restart, then try to empty it.

I've tried that. What does it even mean? I'm fairly new to macs. Thanks.

Sorry. I was asking what an alias is. I apologize for being unclear. I am trying the link. Thanks.

An alias is a shortcut.

rjs. Sorry, I meant an alias. I wasn't very clear.
Celtic. I tried the windows thing with boot camp. That fixed it. I have dealt with this for about 4 months and now it's gone. Thank you.

rjs. Thanks. Still trying to learn the terms.

No problem, that's why we're here.

I would bet that you will never get rid of it. It comes from Windows. Thanks Microsoft. You see I have the same problem and tried everything. After a year I just gave up. The only way to get rid of it is getting rid of Windows...
