- 1. Quit out of all applications so that only the Finder is running.
-
- 2. Enter Command-Option-Escape (simulataneously).
- A dialogue box will come up asking if you "really" want to quit the Finder.
-
- 3. Click on Yes. Immediately afterward....
-
- 4. Hold down the Command & Option keys until a dialogue box asks if
- you really want to rebuild the desktop.

- 5. Go get a cup of coffee while it grinds away.......
