How do I uninstall AppCleaner?

[mimi85]

I downloaded it some time ago and don't care for it. However, I can't find a way to uninstall it and have been searching for an answer for quite awhile. Any help would be appreciated.

I have a 2008 iMac running Leopard 10.5.8 if that makes any difference.
Thanks!

Drag it into the trash, then empty the trash,
done, it's gone...

I've tried that several times, however all that does it remove it from the dock. Nothing appears in the trash, so there is nothing to empty and appcleaner is still in my apps, both in spotlight and finder.

you have to drag it out of your "Application" folder into the trash, not from the dock.

Thanks, so far so good!

Wouldn't be ironic if there was no way to remove AppCleaner?

Ha, that's what I was starting to think!

Just run AppZapper on AppCleaner to remove it... then, download AppCleaner so you can cleanly remove AppZapper.

Then, well, I guess download and use AppZapper to cleanly remove AppCleaner. And so then you might want to download AppCleaner so you can clea... AAAAAAH!
