How to uninstall for all users #36

Closed moheinz closed 3 years ago

moheinz commented 7 years ago

I have a new MAC Mini. I installed this application and it was working well for a few weeks. Now, I cannot login as a local Admin because it goes straight the webscreensaver which I cannot get out of. I have the MAC on our network and can login as a network user without the screen saver coming up. I created a new local Admin account and the same thing is happening where the screen saver comes up immediately and I cannot get out of it. I need to remove all traces of this application for all users. How can I do that so I can use this MAC again? It is critical I get this resolved quickly. Thanks for your help.

This didn't get resolved quickly.

For posterity if anybody has found this issue. Screensavers installed for all users are found in /Library/Screen\ Saver while those installed for the current user are in ~/Library/Screen\ Saver.

To remove it just:

sudo rm -rf /Library/Screen\ Savers/WebViewScreenSaver.saver
