macOS and third party applications make use of preference files for storing settings. These preference files are often refereed to as "Plist" files, after the extension ".plist". macOS and third party applications mainly stores preferences in the system or user library. With Cocktail's search tool one can search for corrupted preference files with ease. Once a corrupted preference file is found Cocktail let's you either Reveal the file in Finder or Move the file to Trash. Corrupted preference files can cause your applications and macOS itself to encounter problems.
