Hello !

As I'm not on my Ubuntu box right now I can't be really precise, but here are some information that should help you ...

Usually, files for games, like scores, are stored in hidden directories in your home. So you should open Nautilus and show tyhe hidden files (CTRL+H). You should be able to locate quickly the directory you need (often named after the game) and delete or edit the file with the scores ...

Hope this helped !

Regards,
Benoît

I disagree. Highscores in gnome-games are stored in a common directory for all users on the system,
and shoudn't be altered or removed by end-users.

Can you help with this problem?
