can I remove everything?

[thefuzz]

So I have a iBook G4 and I want to download World of WarCraft on to it but first I want to know if after I've loaded the game on to my iBook and played it for a while can I then remove the game from the hard drive and every thing else the game put on the computer. I was also wandering if there was any way to know for shur that everting had been removed from the laptop. Is the only way to being shur that it's totally removed from your computer wiping your hard drive?

thanks.

AppZapper is a simple solution for you.

It's free for the first five deletions.

It works fine for me. You can find and dig out all the stuff that gets installed when you load a program if you're careful and know where to look but AppZapper does it all for you and shows you what it's doing.

It's a lot quicker than doing it yourself.

You can also delete the World of Warcraft folder and then click on Spotlight and search for "World Warcraft". Delete anything you find. And search for "Blizzard". Delete any .plist files.

But by doing it that way can you be shure that you have deleted everthing?

now I've looked at some reviews on appzapper and found many people say that it works better for drag and drop items. I've also herd that it can often miss things like the supporting files and frameworks. Is this true?

It certainly was true for the initial version of the app. Haven't looked into it since, because a) I'm intelligent enough to find the files I need to delete and b) I don't really install that much stuff that needs deleting.
