### Uninstalling Final Cut Pro | ||
|
||
For whatever reason Apple hasn't ever really had an official method for uninstalling apps. | ||
|
||
On Windows you have **Add & Remove Programs**, but on Mac, they suggest just dragging the application to the trash/bin. | ||
|
||
Alas, that only removes the application, but none of the preferences or support programs. | ||
|
||
The easiest way to completely uninstall Final Cut Pro is using the free [AppCleaner](https://freemacsoft.net/appcleaner/). | ||
|
||
If you want to uninstall manually, you'll need to remove: | ||
|
||

- `/Applications/Final Cut Pro.app` | ||
- `/Library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro System Support/` | ||
