Mac Tip Podcast – #031 – Trashing Protected or Locked files
I use an application called Appzapper, found at appzapper.com. this app allows you to get rid of the useless cruft that apps have left on mac, What Appzapper does is once you have dragged an app into the app; it preforms a scan the app to see whether there are any extra files that the app may have placed on your system when you launched or installed an app. Once the scan has been preformed, it allows you delete the cruft with a single click. It can’t get any easier than that.
But, some times what will happen is a file or app will be locked or protected, and will not allow you to remove it from your trash.
