macOS Mojave – How to Remove Download Without Installing

installmac-appstoremacosmojave

I accidentally clicked the upgrade message, thinking I was upgrading something else, which downloaded Mojave.

I was then presented with a window to install Mojave. I don't want to install Mojave. It appeared I could not close the window, only minimize it. But once I did minimize it I was able to right-click and select Quit.

I would like to completely remove whatever was downloaded because I'm afraid it will install without my consent. Any solutions to remove the download?

It should be in Applications, as "Install macOS Mojave" - just in case you were looking for it under "M".

The installer is simply an app, so like any app, just put it in the trash and empty the trash.
