Some tips for uninstalling Roblox

After uninstalling Roblox on Mac, here you have to be careful of:

  • Search "Roblox" in Spotlight (Command + Space) to ensure no remnants remain.
  • Check /Applications, ~/Library/Application Support/, and ~/Library/Caches/ again.
  • Roblox runs in browsers, too. Clearing browser cache/data isn't required for uninstallation but may resolve leftover issues.
  • Download Roblox again from https://www.roblox.com/download if needed later.

For the fastest and most thorough removal, using CleanMyApp is better. If you prefer doing it manually, remember to delete leftover files from your Library folder or Terminal to free up disk space completely.
