Thank you, that worked. I still think it's a bug. "My MacBook Pro" is where I want the default place for the Finder to open up in, but it shouldn't one day show me one view then randomly decide to switch it up on me and give me the other view.
I am getting same finder default error, also many times when my iMac starts, it shows 'firmware' installation type gray progress bar at startup.. after that i have to restart again to make my wacom work. else it doesnt.
