Uninstall Mac apps completely

Bundles are only part of the story — containers, preferences, and support files add up.

Dragging an app to Trash removes the bundle. Leftovers in Library/Application Support, Containers, Preferences, and caches can remain for years.

DiskFrend’s Applications room totals the bundle plus common leftovers, then offers Clear caches or Uninstall completely — both routes go through Trash, not permanent delete.

Review the size breakdown before confirming. Huge “Other” footprints are often support data or agent folders tied to the app name.

After uninstall, Overview refresh drops those paths from the scan tree so the donut updates without waiting for a full manual rescan.
