How do I uninstall a seemingly hidden app from my MacBook Air?

I downloaded an app, Tobiidynovox, and found it wasn't working so I have tried to uninstall it. The icon is on my toolbar but I cannot find it anywhere else to delete it. It is definitely there as I can see it in my activity monitor. I am not sure that it is giving me the dreaded rainbow wheel ??? Is there someway I can get rid of this? below is a screen shot showing the icon in my toolbar and then my applications window.

Select the "TD Updater" process, then click the circled "i" or the key combination ⌘ I or select Activity Monitor's View menu > Inspect Process. Then, click the Open Files and Ports button.


All the files it draws upon will be revealed, after which you can locate them in the Finder and drag them to the Trash.


You will probably need to kill the "TD Updater" process before you can drag open files to the Trash. Click the circled "x" or the key combination ⌥ ⌘ Q or select Activity Monitor's View menu > Quit Process.


Back up your Mac before doing anything (just goes without saying).
