Guitar Man, Sorry about the wrong area. My program names are Internet /Explorer/ and Windows /Exploring/. I just looked at the word Explorer and misunderstood where I was to look. I couldn't find the current Profiles folder in the Recycle Bin. There was the old stuff - ccm1moc8.default/ <file:///C:/WINDOWS/Application%20Data/Mozilla/Profiles/Copy%20of%20ccm1moc8.default/>--deleted May 23, but nothing today. And, back to the Windows Exploring menu, again there was nothing about the "protected operating system files." Thanks.
