I'm having some issues with starting up my Macbook Pro. A while back I installed the program "Lock my Mac" - I'm not sure if any of you are familiar with it but that's rather irrelevant. It's a program with which you can put your computer on standby with a neat graphic effect. This effect also occurs when you start up your computer, namely after you type in your password in the log in screen, when it switches from the log in screen to the desktop. I de-installed the program about a week ago, yet the "lock my mac" effect has not disappeared when starting up my computer.
I have attempted to:
1. Go to log in items in the system preferences to check the start up items, but nothing leading to the Lock my Mac application could be found.
2. Search my computer using multiple search functions for "Lock my Mac" but haven't been able to find anything related.
What I believe is that there might be an item deep inside the system settings, but I have no idea how I'd possibly find that amongst the thousands of folders that the system consists of. The reason why I want to get rid of the effect is because it's significantly slowing the start up down.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
