# How to uninstall Razer Synapse ( http://www.razerzone.com/synapse/ ) | |
# on OS X El Capitan without using Razer's official uninstall tool. | |
# Tested on OS X 10.11.5 in July 2016. | |
# Step 1: In your terminal: stop and remove launch agents | |
launchctl remove com.razer.rzupdater | |
launchctl remove com.razerzone.rzdeviceengine | |
sudo rm /Library/LaunchAgents/com.razer.rzupdater.plist | |
sudo rm /Library/LaunchAgents/com.razerzone.rzdeviceengine.plist | |
# Step 2: Manually delete Razer Synapse app from Applications in Finder | |
# Step 3: Delete Razer files from "Application Support" folders: | |
sudo rm -rf /Library/Application\ Support/Razer/ | |
rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/Razer/ | |
# Step 3: Restart your Mac. | |
# Expected results: | |
# - The Razer icon should be gone from the OS X menu bar now, and also not pop up sporadically either | |
# - The two processes "RzDeviceEngine" and "RzUpdater" should not be running when you check ActivityMonitor |
