Those were my initial thoughts also. Thats why I googled and queried the
group.
As I indicated in my followup message, when rebooted to Pro it was
accessible. I now think if it were something that needs to be kept, it
would have been stuck somewhere less visible or had its attributes set to
hidden and read only.
I think I will relocate it and see if the OS misses it. If it doesn't, I'll
delete it.
Of course, right after I delete it and empty the recycle bin, the OS will
want it back. But such is life. :-))
