How to uninstall AntiChat

There are two ways. Both remove everything AntiChat keeps on this Mac.

Choose AntiChat › Uninstall AntiChat… (or Settings › Storage › Uninstall AntiChat…). The sheet lists what will be removed and how much space it frees. Click Export my data first if you want to keep your chats, then type UNINSTALL and click Uninstall. AntiChat removes its models, chats, pictures, files, caches, logs and settings, turns off Launch at login, clears its keyboard shortcuts, moves itself to the Trash and quits.

  1. Quit AntiChat.
  2. Drag AntiChat from Applications to the Trash.
  3. In Finder, choose Go › Go to Folder… and delete each of these, if it exists:
  • ~/Library/Application Support/AntiChat (chats, pictures, files, backups, models)
  • ~/Library/Caches/AntiChat
  • ~/Library/Logs/AntiChat
  • ~/Library/Preferences/app.antichat.AntiChat.plist
  • ~/Library/Saved Application State/app.antichat.AntiChat.savedState
  • ~/Library/HTTPStorages/app.antichat.AntiChat*
  • ~/Library/WebKit/app.antichat.AntiChat
  • ~/Library/Caches/app.antichat.AntiChat* (download and update caches)
  • ~/Library/Containers/app.antichat.AntiChat.FileTools*
  • ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/AntiChat*.ips
  • $TMPDIR/AntiChat-incognito-* (temporary; macOS also clears it on restart)

If you moved the Models folder to another drive (Settings › Storage › Models folder › Move…), delete that folder too. Settings › Storage shows where it is, with Show in Finder.

Keychain items named app.antichat.* can be deleted in Keychain Access.

The Models folder is never included in Time Machine backups. Chats in older Time Machine backups remain the user’s to delete; uninstalling AntiChat does not change existing backups.
