MacOS – How to uninstall Safari Technology Preview

macossafarisafari-technology-preview

I installed Safari Technology Preview, but want to get rid of it now. Clicking and holding on Launchpad doesn't do the trick, STP "wiggles" without a cross. The download is an installer, so I'm wondering if anyone knows of an uninstaller. Else I guess I'll just dump it in the trash.

Exactly. To delete an Application that is not sandboxed (not downloaded from App Store) you have to go in /Applications/ and delete the Application File.

You can re-download Lion even though it has already been installed by holding down the option key before clicking Purchased.

Do not release the key until after the option to Install appears alongside OS X Lion.

The workaround may be more reliable if something other than Purchased is in foreground before alt/option-clicking Purchased.

Burn the installer to disc, then delete it when you're done with it.
