Remove Garmin Express manually

All Mac users are likely familiar with the uninstallation method of dragging and dropping an icon to the Trash. However, if you want to remove the Garmin Express Mac application from your computer, this method will not delete the app completely. Due to the fact that every application creates service files on your disk, you will want to delete these service files in order to entirely remove an app.

Usually, the service files are stored in the user’s Library folder. This folder is hidden by default to protect critical system files from accidental removal. Nevertheless, if the Garmin Express app’s executable file has been deleted, its service files are useless and you can freely delete them. So, to remove Garmin Express from your Mac manually, take the next steps:

  1. Quit Garmin Express.
  2. Open the Applications folder in Finder → select the Garmin Express.app and drag it to the Trash. Garmin Express in Applications folder
