Every computer user has to go through the process of uninstalling programs from time to time and uApp is a program for Mac that was designed to make this process much easier and to provide a much more thorough removal of all components.

Overview of uApp

As many computer users have found out over the years, one of the worst things about downloading a program to your system is that you can never quite get rid of it. Even if you delete it, you still have some files hanging around, plus the process can be more difficult than it seems. This is where uApp can be a huge help for Mac users. This program makes it as simple to delete as dragging and dropping the program into a box, and pressing delete. Not only does the program delete, but all of its program files will be entirely removed from your computer.

Although this program has been discontinued from Eagle-of-Liberty, the company that created, all this means is that the program is no longer updating. You can still download and use this free program, which is available on Mac and Mac OS X systems. Just remember that there will be no more updates.

How uApp Works

When you first open this program, everything seems pretty self-explanatory in terms of how it works. A small, gray box opens on the screen, and you get a list of what's pertinent on your computer, such as the ImageWell, your new programs, etc. You can navigate around here and scroll down through your programs, finding which ones you wish to remove. Then it's as simple as dragging them down into the separate bar on the bottom to delete.

It really is that simple, and so you won't need any expertise at all to use this program. Just take care to watch what you're dragging into the bar, because once you delete something with this program, it's gone forever and you're not going to be able to recover it.

uApp Features

When it comes to the features of uApp, there actually aren't a whole lot to deal with here. Basically the only feature you have to contend with is the box that comes up and allows you to scroll through your downloaded programs, which you will use to drag and drop into the delete bar.

However, there is a cool feature on this program that allows you to actually lock certain programs that you don't want deleted. So there are no worries at all about accidentally deleting something you wish to keep. Just remember to first go through and lock everything you want to keep before you start deleting.
