We’re sad to see you go!

But we know love can never be forced. These are places you’ll need to delete files from in order to clean your Mac of Iguana:

  1. Stop Iguana

  2. Quit Monitor

Delete the Application icon from your application directory - this is safe to do any time since it’s just got the application executable, not your data.

rm -rf /Application/IguanaX.app/

This is the working directory (typically ~/Library/IguanaX/) for Iguana which contains all your data, including instance configurations and logs.

rm -rf ~/Library/IguanaX/

Finally go to ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ and delete:

  • com.interfaceware.IguanaX.controller.plist - this starts the controller for Iguana when you start up.

  • com.interfaceware.IguanaX.plist - this will be present if Iguana is installed and running

    • The controller will delete this file when Iguana is not running so don’t worry if it isn’t present.

rm -rf ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.interfaceware.IguanaX.*
