    How did I mess this up?

    Screen Shot 2021-04-22 at 5.34.31 PM.png

    I copied a backup copy of my Reunion tree to put on a flash drive. Somehow I managed to remove it from my original Reunion Files instead of the desktop. How can I put it back in. I tried dragging it but that does not seem to work. I usually just click on the Reunion icon on my screen and it shows me my files. Also, how do I remove an empty "My Family File 2021" from there? It is empty. Thank you. Linda

    You are in a Reunion dialog box. You cannot do Finder functions when in an application's dialog box. Hit Cancel and find your files wherever they are and you should be able to drag wherever you want.

      Well, I found a workaround. I made a copy and put it in the dialog box. Hopefully, all will be well. Is there any way to delete a file from the dialog box? Thank you, Linda

        The dialog box just shows the contents of the folder:

        Documents/Reunion Files/

        You can edit the contents of that folder via Finder, as you would any other folder on your Mac.
