Question Mark Folder

Hi


I have had the folder with a question mark appear on my screen on three separate occasions now. Either I keep doing something wrong or there is a problem somewhere else...


Does anyone have any ideas why this keeps happening to me?

If you see a flashing question mark on your Mac's screen at startup, it means your Mac can't find its system software.

If this happens intermittently, it MAY mean that the drive where the system folder resides is starting to fail

Read this ALL carefully = first = then take actions

If a flashing question mark appears when you start your Mac - Apple Support
