I have noticed that when I reconstruct the brains (with edits) three files appear; fsaverage, lh/EC_average and rh.EC_average...I only recently noticed these and have before then been under the impression that all the useful data for analysis is in each individual's subject folder. Therefore I have not attempted to move these files when, for example, moving an individual to a new file etc. I What are these files/are they anything that I need for analysis?
Thank you so, so much!

Hi Cathy
they are used during the recon to map labels from average spaces into your individual subject (e.g. entorhinal cortex).
