updates is better than the incremental ones. I'll try the combo.
Just on a hunch, what is the name of the System Events file (or files) in
/System/CoreServices? It should be "System Events" without any version
number after it. You can have multiple System Events files in there, as long
as only one of them is named "System Events". I believe they won't get
called, or won't work correctly, if named anything other than "System
Events".
The Finder offloads folder and file commands to System Events, so it sounds
as though on your system System Events isn't getting accessed quite right.
If it isn't a naming issue, maybe it's corrupted and you should reinstall
System Events.
Or try directing your Finder container commands directly to System Events,
instead, and see what happens. As in 'tell application "System Events" to
...'
