    Hello,
    you could remane to .fr-o2Jga_ (for example) and reboot...
    If your system crashs rename it again in recovery mode.

    These folders are usually application user settings. I do not think anything bad will happen. At most some application will load the default data if you reinstall it.

    Regards

    ya i think that is great idea. try and error will teaching us.
    I really like that.

    but i think that is not application user settings because in subfolder there are folder like "home/username", before that i 've been changed my username and home.
    directory contains my old files.

    but thanks for answer.
