It makes no sense to me because also this...
  sDir &/= "applications"

so what's made looks like it should be in ~/.local/share/applications/ not
just in ~/.local/share/

And the contents of the folders.. ??
./hsts-storage.sqlite
./storage/salt
./deviceidhashsalts/1/

It's all very confusing, I could not make sense of it. sorry
