Hi govindan unni,

​Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities. From your post, I see you have a question about deleting the Chess app.

Because Chess is a built-in OS X app, it can't be uninstalled or deleted. If you try dragging it from your Applications folder to your Trash, you'll receive an error message stating the app "can't be modified or deleted because it's required by OS X," which would be normal behavior for built-in apps.

I hope helps to answer your question.

Take care.
