For example, Flash Player always installs files with alternate permissions, and Disk Utility>Repair Permissions usually changes them. Some 3rd party installer packages don't create receipts, so they won't ever repair the permissions & ownerships. Sometimes the permissions & ownerships are wrong in the receipt, and in this case, if you run Repair Permissions it will "fix" it wrong. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
