OS 10.6.8 Looking through my apps etc to trash unwanted files, I came across a folder named Zstringtable which contains 36 items, all xml flies. One of them is named FontCustomization.xml. All of the others seem to be related to different countries. What is the purpose of these xml files and can I delete them with the possible exemption of the Font one? The path is,\apps\utilities\adobe apps manager\P7\ZstringResource. I googled this question and there seems to be differences of opinion. jaybass

Do you use Adobe applications? If not, it would seem to be safe to trash them.

What were the differences of opinion?

Ira, I use adobe Photoshop elements 10, Adobe reader and flash player. Not too often these days, my age I guess. The differences of opinion were mostly indefinite from they take so little room so keep them to unsure as to the consequences if you delete them. As I said, they look like they are for different countries so I was thinking about keeping just the US one? However, not a big issue really. Thanks anyway. jaybass
