In theory, uninstalling applications in Mac OS X should be as simple as a drag-and-drop to the Trash. Unfortunately, the reality is that some application components, like preferences and other support files, may get left behind to take up unnecessary hard drive space. AppZapperis goal is to help you root out and remove applications and their associated files for you.
Installation involved a simple drag-and-drop into my Applications folder, and with a double-click I was up and running. My first concern was that AppZapper could potentially remove Mac OS X-installed applications with without my knowledge, but by default it keeps those apps safe. Even so, applications that you choose to remove are not deleted until you say so. Instead, they get moved to the Trash so that you can review what has been removed and decide if there is something you really want to keep, or go ahead and delete the files.
 AppZapper gives you an organized list of installed applications. |
