How do I uninstall RescueTime fully in a Mac?
How do I fully uninstall RescueTime from my Mac? I just downloaded it to take a look at it and decided it isn't what I need. I want to make sure that I uninstall it correctly. Thank you!

Inappropriate?Sorry it didn't work out for you, here are the steps to removing all traces of RescueTime on the Mac:
Uninstall RescueTime - Mac
- You must first exit RescueTime by clicking on the menu icon (the plus sign) located at the top of your screen next to the clock and selecting "Quit RescueTime"
- Once RescueTime has quit, you can remove RescueTime by going to your Applications folder and dragging the RescueTime.app icon to the Trash
- (Optional) RescueTime stores log files locally on your computer in a directory located at: Macintosh HD:[username]:Library:RescueTime - you can throw that entire directory in the trash if you no longer wish to keep your log files
- (Optional) RescueTime preferences are located at: Macintosh HD:[username]:Library:Preferences:com.RescueTime.plist - you can throw that file in the trash
That should get rid of RescueTime and all of its components.
Thank you!

Thank you SO MUCH for the clear and complete directions. I once had a nightmare experience with a software program that would never uninstall completely. I am sure RescueTime is a great product; it just wasn't precisely what I needed. Certainly the tech support is splendid! Thank you. -
Inappropriate?Agreed. Thanks so much for the opportunity to try without pain!
If I need a detailed tracker like this again or if someone asks for a recommendation, RescueTime certainly does the job.
In my case it just turns out I don't need that application.
I’m relieved.
