[QUOTE="mrplow, post: 1555600, member: 38928"] I'll disagree and say it's not a flaw, for the reasons I've given in my previous (seemingly unread) posts. A flaw suggests a mistake, an error, a limitation. But the plists are left there on purpose by the OS as they are not part of the original install. If an application developer wishes to remove the plist then they can provide an uninstaller. As to a solution. If you, as the end user, wishes to remove them you can (as described above). But that's a solution to your expectation that a plist file would be removed rather than a solution to a flaw. [/QUOTE]
