Correction, I just connected a USB drive to the computer, and once mounted
via fileman it recreates the .desktop file I was referring to in my last
email.
Thankfully it does not reproduce the error once the drive is disconnected. I
have now tried several usb devices and each connects and disconnects without
reproducing the original bug. However, the .desktop files referencing the
devices remain in the aforementioned directory (.e/e/fileman/favorites)
meaning that I now have 6 usb devices showing up on the left hand side of
the file selection dialog and none are actually present. Seems the problem
is with the removal of the .desktop file once the device is removed.

Hope that helps.
