Disk Utility info.plist issue

[mike4567]

I accidentally deleted the info.plist file from the contents folder of disk utility. Now disk utility will not open. I no long have the file on my computer. Is there anyway I can get DU to work again? Can someone help me replace that file?

Thanks and I appreciate all responses!

What OS are you on?

Well done for corrupting an application by deleting something that should not be deleted inside the contents folder of an application. Great way for a disaster. Have you or did do do a backup using Time Machine if you were on leopard or OS above?

If you have a backup, then you should restore your copy of Disk Utility. If you don't have a backup: BACKUP EVERYTHING NOW! And you will have to reinstall the OS.

Can I ask what you were trying to do? Deleting a file from inside a system application's package is not something that should happen "by accident". It requires authorisation.
