Hi guys!

I have a minor problem that is driving me nuts.
When I login to my macbook pro TextEdit is staring automatically and displays the following message:

Yuanti-SC-Light-stub.ttf.plist
"bplist00°’%&'(_MTD_Typeface_List_MTD_FontFile_FileName_MTD_FontFile_OSXInstallLocation_MTD_FontFile_DataForkSize_MTD_FontFile_ResourceForkSize°fl

I tried repairing disk permissions and re-installing the OS but nothing fixed the issue. I also tried deleting the mentioned font from font book but still the message shows up everytime I login to my computer. Other than that my computer is running fine. It is just really annoying and I can't seem to get my head around it.

Here's a screenshot:

Many thanks guys! Please help me.

Best regards
 
Check the following locations for apps that automatically launch on startup and delete any you don't need/want:
  • System Preferences > Accounts > yourusername > Login Items
    (Lion and ML users: System Preferences > Users & Groups > yourusername > Login Items)

  • /Library/LaunchAgents/
    (Lion and ML users: In Finder, click Go > Go to Folder > then enter the path above)

  • ~/Library/LaunchAgents/
    (Lion and ML users: In Finder, click Go > Go to Folder > then enter the path above)

  • /Library/StartupItems/
    (Lion and ML users: In Finder, click Go > Go to Folder > then enter the path above)
 
Hey GGJstudios!

Thanks for your help! I used a third party app (find any file) to locate the particular file and deleted it from the font resources menu, the message did not show up again.

Many thanks!
