Unable to uninstall disk drill

Hi
I recently installed the unpaid version of Disk Drill.
As I don't need it any longer, I wanted to uninstall the program.
However, it's license and agreement box keeps popping up, no matter what I try to do to uninstall it. I've tried its own uninstall, AppCleaner, I've deleted com.cleverfiles.cfbackd.plist  \nothing works. Tried everything several times, restarted my macbook.
Could really use some help uninstalling this damned program.
Thanks

  • I am unable to uninstall PocketCloud Companion.

    I am unable to uninstall PocketCloud Companion. After I install and try to uninstall I get the message "Uninstall.app. is damaged and can't be opened. You should eject the disk image". When I try to move the app to the trash, I get a message indicating that the app is open, and therefore can't be moved to the trash.
    I have tried killing the two processes: Wyse PocketCloud Mac Companion, and PocketCloudService (root) to no avail. (through the Terminal app): They will not die, looks like they are being relaunched - though I don't see them in the LaunchAgents folder, and I don't have a LaunchDaemons folder.
    I'm running OS X 10.8.3. I

    Uninstalling Software: The Basics
    Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash.  Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder.  Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space.  If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
    Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application.  In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
    Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder.  You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder.  You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder.  Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
    Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item.  Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder.  Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences.  Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab.  Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
    Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS.  Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
    If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term.  Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default.  You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
    Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder.  Usually with the same name as the program or the developer.  The item generally has a ".pkg" extension.  Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
    There are many utilities that can uninstall applications.  Here is a selection:
        1. AppZapper 2.0.1
        2. AppDelete 3.2.6
        3. Automaton 1.50
        4. Hazel
        5. AppCleaner 2.1.0
        6. CleanApp
        7. iTrash 1.8.2
        8. Amnesia
        9. Uninstaller 1.15.1
      10. Spring Cleaning 11.0.1

  • Unable to uninstall sql server 2012 from Windows 7(ultimate) 64-bit SP1 version.

    I am trying to install sql sever 2012 on my m/c but it's giving me error after partial installation.
    Now I have successfully installed Sql Server 2008 R2 on my machine but when I am trying to uninstall 2012 sql server from my machine its giving an error regarding unsupported OS. However as mentioned earlier I have Windows 2007 Ultimate SP1 (64-bit) installed
    on my machine which is included in valid platform for sql server 2012. Also I installed visual studio 2013 on my machine but it existed with error SqlServer\LocalDB not installed.

    Hi pritamk,
    According to your error message, as other post, you can uninstall SQL Server from command line, inaddition, another workaround is that change the compatibility mode of setup.exe to Vista SP2, then run “Remove” option from the control panel. You can refer
    to the following steps.
    Browse to your SQL setup bootstrap folder, For SQL Server 2012, this is the path "C:\Program Files \Microsoft SQL Server\110\Setup Bootstrap\SQLServer2012\".
    Go to Setup.exe file and right click on Setup.exe. Then go to properties and click on "Compatibility" tab. Under "Compatibility mode", click on Run this program in compatibility mode for "Windows Vista (Service Pack 2)". Then Click on "Apply" then "OK".
    After that go to control panel -> Programs and Features -> and remove SQL Server 2012
    There is similar issue about uninstalling SQL Server 2012 RC0 from control panel. You can review the following post.

  • HT3275 I continue to get the following error message: Unable to complete back up.an error occurred while creating backup folder. It's a brand new drive. When I attempt to repair it using disk utility I get:unable to repair disk cannot unmounted

    I have been trying to use time machine on a new lacie 2tb usb 2 drive for back up. I continue to get: "unable to complete backup.An error occured while creating backup folder". When I use disk utility to repair I get another error message: unable to repair disk unmountable.
    Help me Obie One Canobie you are my last hope

    I have confused myself with the facts!  Started out keeping track of every step and every variable but have sort of lost it as we progress here.  First I quit all applications then swapped connections between mouse port and backup disk port to influence possible bad connections question.  Changed power outlet receptacle for the backup disk. Disabled the put-the-HD-to-sleep option.  Then powered down the computerator.
    Next started up computerator.  Turned Time Machine ON  and experienced multiple successful backups!  Then I started up a few applications, Mail and Text Edit (but not Safari so far).  Had a few more successes.  After each backup, I used Disk Utility to verify the backup disk is still OK.  This because the error about unable to unmount the backup disk seems to go hand in hand with Disk Utility finding the backup disk to be bad.
    Put computer to sleep for the night.  Upon starting up in the morning, and before doing anything else, I did a backup disk verification... BAD!   Did a restart and verified the backup disk... OK.
    Did a few    Sleep-bad, Restart -OK    repetitions.
    It seems consistent:  Sleeping the computer apparently messes up the backup disk but doing a Restart "repairs" it.
    =============================
    Now then, I don't understand everything I know here.  Methinks that maybe keeping the HD from sleeping during lulls in activity has allowed successful backups through the day but manually putting everything to sleep for the night causes a return to the problem of spinning-back-up-too-slowly (which was explained earlier).  Is there any truth in this?
    I may abandon this Seagate thing for something more compatible.  What's out there that we know works reliably for us?

  • Anyone know how to repair a corrupted .DMG file? I recovered the file using Disk Drill. There are actually 4-6 files I have encrypted into a DMG - now they are back on my desktop (deleted them months ago) and the size is correct (between 500-900 MB each)

    I deleted several .mov files a while back that were encrypted into a .dmg file. Using Disk Drill, I was able to recover 5 of these files, roughly 500-900 MB each and successfully moved them to my desktop. When I try to open the .dmg file, the dreaded error message "no mountable file systems" shows up. I have tried various fixes based on searches and none have worked. Are these files just corrupted and unreadable, or is there a way to fix?

    Thanks for the obvious question. I mean it. The very same thought came to me this morning and, sure enough, I had booted into another drive--my old one that, of course, had the old desktop, etc.
    It didn't dawn on me that this was the case since I hadn't set it as a boot drive but I guess in the course of all the restarts I did, it got switched.
    I'm back to normal again.

    Win64 not supported
    The author of the package you are installing did not include support for this platform.

    1. copy jre to the system 
    2. run >"Uninstall.exe" LAX_VM <path_to_jre>

  • Data Recovery external hard drive - Stellar Phoenix or Disk Drill?

    Hi guys
    This might not be the right location for my post, sorry, but I didn't know where to put it elsewhere.
    This is the situation: My Finder keeps telling me that copying a huge folder to my My Book Studio Edition II is imposible, so I tried to reconfiger the external hard drive. Result: all my data is lost on that one (stupid me, indeed )
    Luckily, I have another external HD with a back-up from the 1st of july, and the most recent files are on my computer. Only some folders an files are lost, or not up-to-date anymore, since I stored them on the external hard drive without making a back-up on the other external HD.
    Google told me that Stellar Phoenix and Disk Drill can help, and indeed, Stellar Phoenix already showed me the map structure I had on my My Book Studio Edition II before completely erasing it, and this after only having scanned less than 5 %, but before continuing, I wonder if this software (and Disk Drill) are reliable, and they won't do anything bad to me beloved MacBook Pro
    Thanks for your opinion!
    Bob

    Apparently, I found the solution.
    Doing the below procedure I was able to access the files and copy all the content of My Documents.
    To resolve this issue, you must turn off Simple File Sharing, and then take ownership of the folder:
    Turn off Simple File Sharing:
    Click Start, and then click My Computer.
    On the Tools menu, click Folder Options, and then click the View tab.
    Under Advanced Settings, click to clear the Use simple file sharing (Recommended) check box, and then click OK.
    Right-click the folder that you want to take ownership of, and then click Properties.
    Click the Security tab, and then click OK on the Security message, if one appears.
    Click Advanced, and then click the Owner tab.
    In the Name list, click your user name, Administrator if you are logged in as Administrator, or click the Administrators group.
    If you want to take ownership of the contents of that folder, click to select the Replace owner on subcontainers and objects check box.
    Click OK.
    You may receive the following error message, where Folderis the name of the folder that you want to take ownership of:You do not have permission to read the contents of directory Folder. Do you want to replace the directory permissions with permissions granting you Full Control? All permissions will be replaced if you press Yes.
    Click Yes.
    Click OK, and then reapply the permissions and security settings that you want for the folder and the folder contents.

  • Unable to uninstall Quicktime

    I get the following error when I try to access the QuickTime settings in the control panel:
    An exception occurred while trying to run "C:\Windows\system32\shell32.dll, Control_RunDLL "C:\Windows\system\QuickTime.cpl", QuickTime"
    When I try to open iTunes, it fails and the "Send an error report to Microsoft?" box appears. I am unable to uninstall quicktime and re-download it. Any ideas?
      Windows XP  

    Currently I am also unable to reinstall Quicktime as well, but here is what I can suggest:
    1) Type "93976" into the support box and find the solution post by Apple and see if that helps.
    2) I reccomend the Mircosoft Uninstaller Utility just as a tool to fix any nonresponsive programs (such as The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion on my computer- would not uninstall). This can be found in the solutions list titled: "Clean up iTunes installer files on the computer" at the bottom. Use it to uninstall the programs.
    3) Call the Apple support line: 1-800-275-2273 (USA)
    and talk with a professional and demand answers (do not accept "Go to an Apple store").
    4) Look at other threads and look for solutions.
    As I said at the top, I also cannot reinstall Quicktime, so this might be a program installation error, which hopefully will be fixed soon. Keep me posted if you get any results.

  • Unable to 'Repair Disk' due to Error message

    Routine check on the state of my HHD using Disk Utility - Permissions chks all ran fine and good, but not completing the Verify Disk process. The log file (below) was generated:
    _Verifying volume “Macintosh HD”_
    Checking HFS Plus volume.
    Checking Extents Overflow file.
    Checking Catalog file.
    Checking multi-linked files.
    Checking Catalog hierarchy.
    Checking Extended Attributes file.
    *Incorrect number of Extended Attributes*

    Checking volume information.
    *The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.*
    *Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit*
    1 HFS volume checked
    *Volume needs repair*
    unable to Repair Disk unless the full Verify Disk process has finished, is there an easy fix option, or does it signify a bigger problem?

    Were you booted up from your install disk when you ran Disk Utility? If not, you'll need to try that and see if the disk can be repaired. If it can't, and you don't have a recent clone that is not damaged to replace the contents of the startup disk with, then Disk Warrior is the best option.

  • I purchased a IMac in Feb later I added a Seagate ext. hard drive. On April 29 I received an errors that the ext. Drive may be a read only and not backing up files. I'm unable to check disk permission or correct errors. Help would be appreciated.

    I purchased a IMac in Feb later I added a Seagate ext. hard drive. On April 29 I received an errors that the ext. Drive may be a read only and not backing up files. I'm unable to check disk permission or correct errors. Help would be appreciated.

    Click on the hard drive on the desktop, then File > Get Info. What does it say about permissions?  If this is just a data drive you may want to consider "ignore ownership on this volume".
    Otherwise I can only say I have not been reading good things about Seagate drives recently.  I have some of their rock-solid ones from about 10 years ago (still running well), but now...?

  • Unable to load Disk 2 of CD install of Solaris 10

    My platform is a Sun Ultra 60 sparc system.
    I find it very disappointing that the SUN downloads do not install. Three or four years ago, I had the same problem with Solaris 9. The first disk installed fine, but not the second disk. I finally gave up and ordered the SUN disks, which installed fine.
    My CD's are all correct. I made three copies of these disks from an iso image--each shows the correct files when read from a MAC and a PC.
    I am unable to install disk two.
    Is there a way to load these disks onto one of my hard drives, so that I can install from one drive to another? Presently I have Solaris 9 installed on disk 1 and the first disk of Solaris 10 installed on disk 2.
    Thanks in advance.

    The graphic drivers do not seem to be the problem. I removed the open source driver and installed catalyst, but the result is still the same; the game starts if sound is blocked by smplayer, but not otherwise. I installed "lib32-alsa-plugins", as recommended in the steam wiki-page. I also installed all dependencies as specified in the Game specific section:
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/St … n_of_Kings
    The problem remains the same. I've also tried running it from within the game folder, but it results in a steam window saying that I need to assure that steam is running and a user logged in (the same result whether I have steam running or not):
    ~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/run.sh ./witcher2
    [S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; SteamAPI_IsSteamRunning() failed.
    [S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; unable to locate a running instance of Steam, or a local steamclient.dll.
    I tried using native runtime, too, but in that case steam started, the game, however, did not start at all, no error or anything.
    I'm using alsa as a sound system, could it be that steam and/or witcher 2 depends on pulseaudio?
    EDIT: Forgot to mention that I of course have installed libcurl (i.e. the packages specified in the link above) and lib32-keyutils (The game doesn't seem to recognize this when started from the game directory...)

  • My iMac has been creating huge core or cores, discovered by Disk Drill. Eating up 2/3 of my HDD all made in 2 days!!

    These cores are documents about 750MB each. I have 70-80 made between Nov. 10-11. I was clued in by message that HDD nearly full. Ran Disk Drill and it found folder "cores" with all these. Is it safe to delete?
    I don't see a folder "cores" except when using disk drill. Very confusing. I can move them to trash via disk drill but when something says "core" I wonder if it's majorly important.
    I do believe I upgraded to Yosemite the day it started but not absolutely sure. Soon around the date for certain. Please help, and thank you!

    These sound like 'core dumps'. They are files containing a 'dump' of memory and settings when the computer detects an abnormal termination of a process. You can type the following in Terminal.app to get more details of this.
    man core
    If you have a number of these it does imply your having repeated problems with crashes on your system. I would check to see if you have any third-party software that needs updating, and also run Disk Utility and verify your hard disk.
    Interestingly the man page says the creation of core dump files is disabled by default and this is what I have normally seen i.e. no such files. Try also doing the following two commands and seeing if the files exist.
    ls -l /etc/launchd.conf
    ls -l ~/.launchd.conf
    The fact you are getting core dump files implies one of these exists to have turned it on.
