  • I can't stand how macOS handles external devices.
    Invisible files: You can use "CleanMyDrive" to eject disks and clean up those files in one go. https://macpaw.com/cleanmydrive However, it's weird that they're causing problems. They might be annoying but I've never heard of them actually causing problems. Can you be more specific? Source: 10 months ago
  • Games won’t launch
    Also, if you are a Mac user I highly recommend CleanMyDrive app. I use this for all my ROM SD cards (Everdrives, Rpi, Handhelds, etc.). Source: 12 months ago
  • How can I prevent my laptop from creating '._' files on removable drives?
    I use CleanMyDrive for years and I like it https://macpaw.com/cleanmydrive. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Hey, I have this problem. I want to get rid of the ._(nameofgame).
    I use CleanMyDrive2 on all my SD cards and external HDDs before ejecting. Works great and it's free. Source: over 1 year ago
  • New to miyoo and not great with technology. What should be my first steps?
    Download CleanMyDrive 2 and install. Grant it access to your SD card. After you transfer any files to you SD card, "clean" your card with the app, before ejecting, to avoid '._' dotfiles everywhere. Source: over 1 year ago
