Remove startup items from deleted app Logmein

I have cancelled and removed the app Logmein as we went over to cloud based office apps so I didn't need to remotely Login.

I deleted all the apps I could find as I didn't have an uninstaller but every time I startup my Mac I get a promptbook asking me to grant security preferences to Logmein which has no close or shrink or quit option. I have found a folder in System Support called Logmein contains about 16 items. The question is can I just delete that and will it solve my problem. Computer is 2016 I7 MacBook Pro running latest Monterey OS.

I have always been afraid to go near System or Library files but Logmein support has been useless

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.5

You can delete all of that, but none of that would cause the print at startup. Those types of things would only be in the folders I mentioned or in your Login Items in Users & Groups system prefs.

What is “System Support?”

If it is somewhere inside /System, you can’t alter it and LogMeIn couldn’t put anything in there unless it did so long ago.

Any sort of startup item would be in /Library/Extensions, /Library/LaunchDaemons, or /Library/LaunchAgents. There is also a LaunchAgents folder in your user Library.

What Barney said.

And, in order to determine what remnants of the application files you still have: Please run Etrecheck and post its full report here.

Use the “additional text” button and paste the report into the text box.

Thanks for the reply. I did the post from memory from the day before as I did not have laptop.

it should have been Library/AppicationSupport/Logmein/ which contains about 25 items many with incomphrensible names to me.

Is it ok to delete this. would it be helpful to see photo of contents.

Again apologies for mistake in first post.
