No idea where that came from?!
It’s not been removed per se, but it’s generated when needed.
These all duplicate what !+Resource does, and only serve to slow down the boot sequence by being looked at twice. The sprites/icon theme are all on the move within !Boot over the next few weeks.
This appears to have been a poor diagnosis of the problem that the MimeMap module (when in ROM) goes dormant if Inet$Mimemappings is not set (which it isn’t prior to booting). Previously the boot sequence did a *ReadMimeMap (which failed because the module was dormant) hence needing this extra kick in PreDesk. This kick is now done in place of *ReadMimeMap.
This is now dealt with by the combined SetChoices program |

Thanks Sprow. The !Boot.Disabled dir contains PreDesk, Resources & Tasks directories – all empty. I’ll assume I can delete that too. |
