Hello Michael, I am still having trouble not receiving WAMUG mailing list messages, so I’ve copied & pasted your message below, so I can answer.
Have you moved the original ‘Desktop Folders’ that you created? Have you deleted the original ‘Desktop Folders’? The Dock just holds aliases to real files, folders, and applications. There is nothing real in the Dock, it just acts like it is. All of the items in the Dock point back to some real item in the file system. They are just shortcuts to the originals. When you open a folder from the Dock, it opens the original folder. Add an item to the Dock: Drag it to the Dock. You Place apps to the left of the separator line, and files and folders to the right of the separator line. Re: The Security Update 2018-001, I experienced it staying in Updates available until I clicked on it and installed again, as there was another version of that same file released a few days later. I suggest you click on it and install again.

The computer has been turned off and started a number of times since then, but despite that I keep receiving a mesage that updates are available. Each supposed update is identified as being Security update 2018-001. One thing I noticed after the update was finally installed was that the icon in the Dock for Desktop Folders ahs ben replaced by a large ? symbol (as in question mark symbol). When the cursor is hovered over the ? symbole, the label “Desktop Folders” appears. No folders appear though, when I click on the ? symbol. Other than that, I have not had any trouble using the computer, but I wonder why the message that an update is available keeps getting sent.
