Duplicate Applications folder.

[xDYLANx]

Okay, so when I first got my Mac I wanted to put the applications folder in the dock. But I copied it to the desktop first. And then I realized I didn't need to do that. So I put the folder back into the App folder. Now I want to delete them and I need to know if it's okay. Because they seem to be duplicates...but I'm not sure. Help please...

You should be able to delete almost all duplicates as the user specific data is stored under Users/You/Library/Application Support/name of the application.

Some applications store some data in its own package (the application), so it may be best to delete the applications you didn't use.

Otherwise I don't think of any problem that could occur.
