Basics for Uninstalling Software

 

Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash.  Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder.  Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space.  If you want you can look for them at the above location and delete them, too.

 

Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. If you cannot find the uninstaller then you could download the freeware, Easy Find, to locate files that need to be removed. The places you need to search include:

 

  1. /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. Check if the application has created a folder then delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. 
  2. Applications may install a startupitem or a LogIn item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder or the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder.  LogIn Items are set in the Users & Groups preferences.  Open it inSystem Preferences, then click on the LogIn Items tab.  Select the item from the list and click on the Delete [-] button to remove it.
  3. Some software use startup daemons or agents.  Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.

 

Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder.  Usually with the same name as the program or the developer.  The item generally has a ".pkg" extension.  Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.

 

There are many utilities that can uninstall applications.  Here is a selection:

 

  1. AppZapper
  2. AppDelete
  3. Hazel
  4. AppCleaner
  5. CleanApp
  6. iTrash
  7. AppBolish
  8. AppUninstaller
  9. Uninstaller

Hi there - I had the same problem and started with malwarebytes - a 30 day free trial. It detected other malware but did not solve the mac ads cleaner problem. I then tried "App Cleaner and Uninstaller" and it looks like I was able to remove the app entirely. It could detect the mac ads cleaner application and its related files, and I could then remove them, all in the free version. I did have to delete the mac ads icon from the dock manually (which I was able to do for the first time). So far there are no more problems. Hope this helps.

Give it a day or so and you will have to remove App cleaner.  A well looked after Mac needs no such aids.
