Re: Why is Android creating (garbage?) external sdcard directories?

Andrews,

The good news is I wiped out everything on the sdcard except the
one top-level folder that I had created on it just after formatting it.

And it still worked.

I was not in doubt of that. Luckely SD cards that have methods to disallow
deep access to it are few and rather costly.

The Android garbage folders came back though, as you implied they
would.

Yep. The same can, and does happen when two people share an USB stick.

Android owns that card. Not me. :->

*Both* of you own that card.   Its just that (Googles) Android is a bit of a
"silent partner". :-)
