Hey Everybody:
Does anyone know if there is a reliable uninstall program that works for Panther, or is it built into the system itself (like Windows). I have some trial stuff that I installed and the discs do not have an uninstall function. Back in os9, you could use Spring Cleaning if you were very careful about what you were deleting, is there something else anyone has used and can recommend?
Just do it manually. It's a Mac, after all ;-)
With *most* programs, just drag the program icon to the trash. This deals with 99.9% of the problem.
Preferences live in your home Library/Preferences folder.
Some programs will install things into your home Library folder, too, like Adobe's support files, or into the Application Support folder there.
A very few programs will install things into the system Library/Application Support folder, though that is intended for system applications only.
Programs more complex than that should have their own uninstaller.
