Q: Delete an App as guest user/no user?

I purchased App for MacBook. It is alternative to lock screen.

I set password etc followed instructions (no need of lecture me) and it has locked me out of my MacBook and the password I set up does not work...

Im just wondering if there is a way to delete this App without having to log in as the only other account on my MacBook is Guest. I can't use my Mac at all with this app as it will not allow me to enter my account

Enable Root, log in as Root, remove the app, log out of Root, and finally log in to regular account.

If you can log in as Guest and you know what files to delete, you should be able to do it by entering your admin name and password when prompted.

Thanks for help I managed to do it by logging in with safe mode then turning off the app then logging in normally and deleting it (I think)
