AppZapper is an application for Apple's macOS that enables a user to delete all application-specific files along with an application. It was released in 2010 by Austin Sarner and Brian Ball.[1]
The software is an uninstall utility that extends the method of uninstalling in macOS, which is dragging the application one wants to uninstall to the trash. When the used drag-and-drops an application onto AppZapper, the application searches for related files in directories other than that of the original application, such as preference files and package receipts. The user can select unwanted files and delete them.[1]
The application protects system files and user designated applications from being deleted and keeps a log of uninstalled applications.[1]
AppZapper 2 was released in 2010.[2]
