Uninstaller for OSX #227

Closed pixtron closed 4 years ago

pixtron commented 4 years ago

Describe the bug

The uninstaller should clean up the following:

Remove bookmarks
Autostart entries

As the deinstallation on OSX happens by just moving the app to the trash, there is no "uninstall" event. The only option would be to create an uninstall executable.

To Reproduce

"uninstall" balloon

Environment

desktop client version: 1.2.1
client os: OSX

Additional context

See #32

Eventually a "How to uninstall" article would help the user to remove all data: https://help.dropbox.com/en-en/installs-integrations/desktop/uninstall-dropbox

We're going the path with proper documentation on how to uninstall the client. It makes no sense to implement this in an uninstaller. At least not yet. If this will change we can reopen the issue.
