- Thread-topic: Deleting Alias
Hi, just in case anybody else notices similar behaviour - I called
removeFileAtPath if an fileExistsAtPath check on the alias evaluated to
true - BUT fileExistsAtPath method only returns true on an alias if the
original file / app is present. The removeFileAtPath method on its own
will quite happily delete an alias whether the original file is present
or not AFAIK.

Subject: Deleting Alias
Hi,
I've tried using removeFileAtPath to delete an alias in the users home
folder, but this doesn't work - it deletes any other file, just not
aliases.
I can't seem to find another method that will do the job. Any help or
advice to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards
Dave
