Yes. The PKG file is a package of installer files that installs an application on your Mac. Once the application is installed you can delete the PKG.

New option for files on Desktop 'Remove Download' Was going to delete files off my desktop and I get this new option 'Remove Download'. For a minute the option to Move to Bin wasnt there and there was only 'Remove Download' but now its come back thankfully. What is this and what does it mean? Never seen it before

Can't remove from desktop on Mac This appeared on the desktop of my Mac computer and I can't remove it. It doesn't show up in Finder or Apps and it has looked exactly like this for days now.
