[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1835899, member: 83420"] Hi John Okay. First off: Adobe Flash Player. If you have any version on your Mac, it can be found in "System Preferences", at the very bottom pane. If there, you can click on that and update Flash from there. If not, then you must download Flash ONLY from the Adobe site. For example: [URL='https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/end-of-life-alternative.html']Adobe Flash Player Install for all versions[/URL] Next. These "Cleaners" are a blasted nuisance, may be bundled with malware, and tend to get into the very "guts" of your Mac. So, you need a proper uninstaller. Ideally, this would come from the developer, but I doubt this one does. The Link you provided comes with various suggestions, all of which require downloading some app or another. I can't really comment on the efficacy of these apps - never used them. But I can recommend AppCleaner which many of us use. It tries to remove all the bits & pieces left behind as well as the app itself. Even then, it would be worth using "Find Any File" by Thomas Templeton. This finds any residual files associated with the Cleaner that might have been missed. I hope these basic ideas help you in your quest. Ian [/QUOTE]
