Default OT: Scripts - can anyone here understand what this one might 'do'?

You'd be amazed at how much I've learned by experimentation.

no i wouldn't, because it's absolutely nothing.

had you learned *anything*, you wouldn't repeatedly ask the *same*
questions over and over and over and over again.

YOU have been afraid to investigate the KnockKnock result personally.


i don't need to investigate anything because i know what the files are
for.


No, you don't.


oh yes i do.

Your help and advice is not to be trusted. You are an unknown quantity
who hides from reality whereas the developer of KnockKnok is well known
and a guru in his field.


logical fallacy.

On
*MY* computer it found an *extra* script file which should not have been
there. It ALSO found two other items, both of which have now been
removed too:-


PromiseSTEX
SoftRAID


then the app is buggier than i thought and you're dumber than i thought.


You really do talk a load of ********, nospam!

"As others have stated, this is a driver for Promise Technology RAID
storage solutions. It is installed by macOS, presumably as a convenience
should you ever plug one in. If you look in that folder, you'll see
drivers for other RAID solutions as well. If one is not detected by the
Mac, it is not loaded by the system. So, it's literally doing nothing,
and safe to leave alone.


in other words, they're *not* malware and any utility that flags them
is buggy, exactly as i said.

you just proved my point and are too stupid to realize it.
