I don't think you want a ~ after the rm command. The command I'd use is sudo rm -rf with a space after the -rf. Drag the file to the termainal window and the full path to the file should appear after the -rf. Hit return. This is a powerful command to run as root. Anything can be removed with it, including important system files. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
