AppCleaner will do the rest for you, showing the related files, which you can all thow into the bin.ĥ b. Throw the Nextcloud.app to the trash bin (giving permission if you are an administrator)ĥ a.It helps you to find the components later if not, look for ‘open files and ports’ in the info window, copy its content and save it in a note or text file.If you use AppCleaner.app, you may skip this step and jump to 4.Strike cmd-shift-U, or open the ‘utilities folder’, choose ‘activity monitor’, look for nextcloud, get info or double click.Open system prefs, choose extensions, deselect Nextcloud, quit.The video may be a little bit confused and concerns the predecessor of Nextcloud - but if you understand what the guy is doing – it works. Surely somebody out there knows what files have been installed, and where, and what support/pref/config files get created by the app so that I can completely remove all traces of the software…? Elaborately reverse engineering the running processes just to find out what’s been installed where seems unnecessary and unreliable.Īctually it does. In any event, none of this still answers my fundamental question: how do I completely uninstall the Mac Nextcloud client? This is not the same as asking “how do I throw away the nextcloud client app?” As you suggested, I’m sure I could go through and selectively kill processes until I could get control of nextcloud.app, but my bigger point is that the error message is telling me that the original installation consisted of additional files…and I don’t know what they are or where they’re located on my computer. I haven’t installed any additional software other than the NC client. I’m definitely the only user logged in, but I don’t see how that would/should affect anything. Sorry about the late reply here, but I’ve been on the road for the past week or two, with limited opportunity to get back to this. So if there’s anyone out there who can tell me how to completely uninstall the mac client, I would really appreciate it!! no trace) uninstall the client app so I can re-install it, as I’m getting some odd behavior. At all.Īs it happens, I want to completely (i.e. What they will see is that they’ve installed a program that they cannot delete. And of course, the vast majority of users will not know anything of this. I could go in and kill what appear to be related processes from the command line or from the Activity Monitor app, but even then I can’t be sure that I’ve removed all trace of the program. And as far as I can tell, the installer hasn’t provided any means of uninstalling the application, nor directions on how to do so. It suggests that just throwing away the nextcloud.app doesn’t uninstall the program, and that the client installer has installed multiple files in multiple locations, without telling me where they’re located, what they’re called, or even how many there are. Hi thanks for the response…and sorry for taking so long to get back to this (I’ve been offline for a while).Īctually, this happens when the app ISN’T running (i.e., even after I’ve quit), and that means there’s a larger issue here.
