Uninstall ooVoo manually
While it’s common to download apps and at any point decide that you don’t need them, what’s important is fully removing the app from your device. It is a great habit to regularly clean up your Mac by removing unneeded files. However, deleting apps is much different than deleting documents or photos, where you can simply move them to the Trash.
Generally, applications contain an executable file and various service files. So, if you want to completely remove the ooVoo Mac version from your computer, you need to delete all of its components.
Follow these steps:
- Quit ooVoo.
- Open the Applications folder → select the ooVoo.app file → drag and drop it to the Trash bin.
- Now you have to delete the ooVoo app’s service files, which are mainly stored in the user’s Library folder. For this, open Finder → click Go in the menu bar → select Go to Folder in the drop-down menu → type ~/Library → press Enter.
- Within the Library folder, find all files and folders that contain ooVoo in their names and delete them. You can locate the useless service files in the following subfolders:
- Then, empty the Trash bin.
