<del> The `._*` files contain metadata about the files some applications write in additional to the file content. On macOS, this metadata can be stored alongside the file on the filesystem, but on remote volumes, with no metadata support, an auxiliary file is created to contain this information. You can delete metadata on files using `xattr -d <filename>`. </del>

As of version [2.1](https://mountainduck.io/changelog/), extended attributes are only saved in a temporary location and not stored on the mounted remote volume. If you want to revert to saving extended attributes to the server, enter in a *Terminal.app* window:

defaults write io.mountainduck fs.filenames.metadata.enable false

If you want to delete metadata files, you can open a *Terminal.app* window and enter `dot_clean -m <folder>`.

A strikedthrough header doesn't make sens therefore keeping the previous form isn't very userfriendly. As the information about the metadata location is not an actual issue it shoudn't be placed in the issue section

Then we should rather remove the section as it no longer applies.
