'If I just drag the icon will it sucessfully remove the entire program!?' - yes, of that application but, not of any additional files, folders, etc. 'I installed a program that came with a audio usb device and want to get it off my system!' - yet, the name and manufacturer (including web site url) of the USB audio device is not provided. This last process is not really needed, since most '.plist' files are quite small in size. Sometimes, the application's creator(s) may provide a de-install / remove like application.Īlso, look into the '~/Library/Preferences/' folder for a '.plist' file of the application you are removing, and drag it also to the 'Dock' based trash can. Other Macintosh software (like that on the Windoze platform) installs items elsewhere and therefore, one must manually locate and trash the additional items. Some Macintosh software (the application, or folder containing the application and any related files, folders, etc.) can be merely dragged to the 'Dock' based trash can, and 'Finder's 'Finder, Empty Trash' menu item selected.
'How do you uninstall software' - that depends on the software creator(s). Sorry if this information has allready been posted in the thread however I could not find the search engine to pull up previous posts.
