RESOURCE.FRK and FINDER.DAT
On 17 Note 2006 “mikestrong” asked about folders named RESOURCE.FRK and files named FINDER.DAT – what they are and are they needed.
“Kappy” responded that they’re created when you copy certain Mac folders and files onto a PC-formatted drive, and you need them to be able to restore the folders and files to a Mac.
MY QUESTION: If I have FINDER.DAT files on a hard drive connected to and accessed from my Mac, and no longer use any MS-DOS or Windows equipment, can I just delete the FINDER.DAT files?
Also, “Dr. Smoke” said, in responding to mike strong on 17 Nov 2006, <https://discussions.apple.com/thread/737597?answerId=737597021#737597021>,
“See also this user tip, <http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=607316>, for additional details.” This link no longer works. Is there anyway of seeing the details that Dr. Smoke was referencing?
Thanks!
