Hi,

I was trying to get Mathematica to search a particular folder on my desktop for graphics to import, and I was playing around with different versions of the
AppendTo[$Path,
ToFileName[{$HomeDirectory, "MyDocuments"}, "MyPictures"]];
command in order to find the correct syntax for locating subdirectories. I found it, but in the meantime appended a bunch of garbage-y instructions to $Path, which now I do not how to remove. Whenever I do search $Path, for instance when I Import[] anything, I now get a string of error messages, in the vein of "this directory does not exist" How do I delete spurious instructions from my $Path?

Thank you very much! This is driving me a wee bit nuts.
