Hi. Does anyone have any ideas why they disabled the lock "system folder" and "applications" folder feature in the General Controls control panel in OS 9.1. I always thought it was a good idea, particularly to prevent kid's from deleting files. The way Apple has always insisted on the use of the Trash icon to remove disks always made me nervous. In fact, the way OS 9.1 creates an Application folder and places all Apple apps in them is something that should have been done long ago. It's much neater that way. The only problem now is they disabled the system and application lock feature. You can't win. On the first level of my Hard drive I always had the System Folder and the Applications folder. Then everything went into the Applications folder. I never did care for the "at ease" program for kid's. My only concern was the accidental or deliberate deleting of files. --
