Unroot | Uninstaller for Mac
A native uninstaller for macOS that moves every leftover to the Trash instead of deleting - and can put it all back.
Unroot is a native macOS uninstaller that scans every place an app hides its leftovers, explains each find before it acts, and moves them to the Trash instead of deleting - so one click can put every file back.
Uninstall apps completely.
Dragging an app to the Trash leaves its preferences, caches, launch items, receipts and permission entries behind. Unroot finds all of it, explains every find, and moves what you approve into one dated folder in the Trash - the removal deletes no file, and one click puts them all back. Every removal it has ever made stays on the list, so undoing one from last month is the same single click as undoing the one from a minute ago.

How it works
- Click Uninstall an app…, right-click an app in the Finder, drop it onto Unroot, or pick it from Apps - it scans every place leftovers hide, with reasons.
- Review the list: each row says why it matched, risky rows start unticked, your files stay untouched.
- Remove: launch jobs stop, permissions reset, then every file moves into one dated folder in the Trash.
- Changed your mind? Undo puts everything back - even after a reinstall nothing gets overwritten.
- Beyond one app: Apps shows what each app weighs and when you last opened it, Leftovers finds what deleted apps left behind, Starts at login turns launch items off or removes orphaned ones, Installers clears disk images left in Downloads, and Permissions… revokes what a kept app can reach. Turn on Catch apps dragged to the Trash and Unroot offers a cleanup the moment you trash an app.
Buying and licensing
Yes. Download the app and it runs in full for 30 days - no key, no card, no email. Nothing is held back during the trial.
No. You pay once and the license is yours for good, on up to 3 Macs. There is no renewal and no in-app purchase. The studio also sells an optional subscription that includes this app, if you would rather have every app instead.
Buy from the store and the key arrives by email right after checkout. Paste it into the app once and it stays activated.
The app locks until you enter a key. Nothing is deleted - your data stays on your Mac and comes straight back the moment you activate.
Yes, and thank you. Every app page has a Buy me a coffee button - one-off, any amount. It is not a purchase: no license is issued and nothing is unlocked, so every app works exactly the same whether you tip or not.
