[QUOTE="baggss, post: 902462, member: 6762"] Application files on a Mac are far more than the .exe file on Windows. While they are analogous in many respects, please don't get the two confused. An App file is NOT simply an executable, it is a package containing much more, which is why the standard removal technique is simply drag to the trash and delete. I have used AppZapper specifically to remove Office as a whole and specific parts of Office on multiple occasions on multiple Macs and I find it does a fine job, so I'm not sure what you are referring to. M$ is one of the few Mac software makers that provides an uninstaller package, but it is not required to remove the App. Again, this isn't Windows. [/QUOTE]
