Hot to remove Etrecheck

Hello. My friend has used Etrecheck on his Apple iMac. How can he make sure it is totally removed from his computer?

Your desire to remove the application is understood. However, for the record, there is nothing nefarious about Etrecheck. It is a useful utility authored by a respected member of these Communities and is used widely. Here is more information about Etrecheck from the author himself: Using EtreCheck - Apple Community


It is not comparable to AVG or similar anti-virus applications. It is a diagnostic reporting tool for your own use and does not purport to "fix" anything. No purchase is required to use Etrecheck and the only "paid version" is the Power User package that adds more functionality to an already very useful, free tool.


Where did you even get the idea it was something bad?
