Deleting an app on MacBook Pro
I have old versions of software on my MacBook that I want to delete. How do I do that?
MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 15.1
Old software might leave behind files in other system directories. To remove these:
- Open Finder and press Shift + Command + G to open the "Go to Folder" window.
- Enter the following directories one by one to look for leftover files:
- ~/Library/Application Support
- ~/Library/Caches
- ~/Library/Preferences
- ~/Library/Logs
- Search for files or folders related to the old software and delete them.
- Example: If you're deleting "OldApp," look for folders or files with names like "OldApp" or the developer's name.
