That's really unlikely.

Boss:
Where did you copy it to? Which folder?

Didn't you say you tried to install it?

It sounds like you're saying it wasn't a single directory you copied over, but a bunch of files in the main directory. In short, that you made i big mess...

If you have a backup it would probably be easier for you to flash and restore. While i can tell you how to delete the files, it sounds to me like you don't have enough understanding of the layout to be sure you don't delete your own stuff in the process.

do this:
open terminal
sudo gainroot
cd MyDocs
ls


then tell us what is listed so we can determine where you placed those files.


then if it is in that directory
rmdir (directory name)

Can you actually see the files anywhere except in the Photos app?
