MacOS – Manual completly uninstall Chrome & Chrome Canary OSX Yosemite

google-chromemacos

I am trying to uninstall/delete chrome & chrome canary, but for some reason, when I restart the computer both programs still there.

I am manually deleting this files and folders

~/Library/Application Support/Google
~/Library/Caches/com.google.*
~/Library/Preferences/com.google.*
~/Library/Google

I am trying to figure out where is the problem and what can I do to solve it.

Thank you

The programs themselves are probably in /Applications

The files you are deleting are most of the data files they use

Before you go blocking fonts and so on, first check this page: http://www.google.com/webfonts

How you get rendered the fonts? On my chrome - without any problems, the chrome CAN render different fonts.

You can try these commands from the Terminal.app

sudo atsutil databases -remove
sudo atsutil server -shutdown
sudo atsutil server -ping

the above will remove your font cache. Work only in snow leopard!

man iosnoop

man execsnoop

man opensnoop

Also possible to get a hint of what's going on running

launchctl bslist -j

as root, which will show you launchd jobs, -j tells you which job started it,

and

launchctl bstree

Which shows the jobs running, and under which domain they are running under.
