Seems it doesn't find everything... probably just as easy to hit alt-cmd-space then cmd-A then drag everything to the trash..

Thought it was quite a useful app - but the odd files that apps leave behind aren't as problematic as on a windows system persay.

Hmm - that depends. Large files just bloat the drive, the number of files slows it down and generates more hits on searches.

I like my drive to be clean and optimally cut to the bone. That way I get the full potential out of the system.

So far I've found Sibelius to be the worst. Luckily all the files it leaves behind from it's uninstaller are copyrighted Sibelius so it's easy to clean up.

Others aren't and it irritates the crap out of me.
