What is the best way to delete old apps on a iMac? Is there a built in App? Or should I try something like CleanMyMac?

Some simple apps can be dragged to the trash but too many modern apps install bits and bobs all over the hard drive. Only the companies' uninstallers can get those.


Confirming Sparkleberry's advice to NEVER use generic uninstallers. They and the sites hosting them are fertile ground for adware and worse.
