Steps to Completely Uninstall and Reinstall PhpStorm

1. Quit PhpStorm:

   • Ensure that PhpStorm is not running. Quit the application if it is open.

2. Remove the Application:

   • Open the Applications folder in Finder.
   • Find PhpStorm.app and drag it to the Trash (or right-click and select Move to Trash).

3. Delete User Configuration and Caches:

   • Open Finder and press Command + Shift + G.
   • Navigate to ~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/ and delete the folder named PhpStorm2025.1.
   • Go to ~/Library/Caches/JetBrains/ and delete the PhpStorm2025.1 cache directory.
   • Check ~/Library/Preferences/ for any JetBrains or PhpStorm-specific files and delete them, including any .plist files.

4. Empty Trash:

   • After deleting the above files and directories, empty your Trash to permanently remove them from the system.

5. Run the Reset Script:

   • Save the modified script above as reset_phpstorm_trial.sh.
   • Open Terminal and navigate to the directory where you saved the script.
   • Run the script with the command:

     sh reset_phpstorm_trial.sh

6. Reinstall PhpStorm:

   • Download the latest version of PhpStorm from the JetBrains website.
   • Open the downloaded .dmg file and drag the PhpStorm icon into your Applications folder.

7. Start PhpStorm:

   • Open PhpStorm.app from your Applications folder. Since you removed all previous configurations, it will start as if for the first time.

8. Resetting the Free Trial:

   • If prompted, choose to start a new trial. If you had previously logged in with a JetBrains account, consider using a different account or not logging in at all to attempt to reset the trial period.

Disclaimer

Please note that attempting to reset the trial period may violate JetBrains' terms of service. The recommended approach is to purchase a license or contact JetBrains for an extended evaluation if needed. Use the above methods at your own risk.
