When I go to my username (the house icon) I just saw a file called "plist Untitled Folder" it says it was created 6/11/18 and it's full of files from 3/10/2016 thru 6/4/18 and mostly apple files, but some google, system profiler, syncserver and other plist files. If I can't delete these can I move them where they belong? I'm not sure where that would be, LOL

You can move the folder to the Trash, restart the computer, and make sure everything works normally. If it does, empty the Trash.
Seems odd to me that a folder would start with a plist. click on folder. do a command + i to get information about the folder. See how big it is. If not so big, I'd not worry about it.
You could rename the folder to see if any software complained. I'm not too big on deleting files and folders. Just move it to an obscure place.

You are welcome. The Trash would be the best place, but if it was in your user folder, the Desktop should work. Make sure you restart and test after moving it.
I tried to move it to another place, is there anywhere besides trash that it'll be out of of way. It was in MacIntosh HD-Users-Me. I just moved it to Desktop after trying some other places. Is there anywhere else I can hide besides Trash. I tried the Library but it woudn't go there or to Containers. Thanks for your help. You always answer me and I really appreciate that.
Great, will do. Thanks again.
You are welcome.
I found a plist file under my username, can I delete it.
