How to delete IMVU from Mac manually

IMVU (Instant Messaging Virtual Universe) is a popular chat room messenger. It provides social entertainment where users can have 3D characters for meeting new people and socializing as well as creating and playing games. It has its own application for Mac but this doesn’t help much, and you are restricted to using IMVU via its website only. Moreover, the app may have spyware. That’s why it’s important to uninstall IMVU completely and ensure no remaining files are left on your system.

1. Quit IMVU. You can do it from the Dock Panel.
   
2. Open the Applications folder, locate IMVU and move it to the Trash.
   

   The first step of uninstalling IMVU has been done. Now you have to find and clear all its cache and support files. They are stored in the Library folder.

3. Open Finder.
4. In the menu bar click “Go” and  select “Go to Folder…”
5. In the search field that appears, type ~/Library and press Enter.



6. Find in the Application Support subfolder all items related to IMVU and move them to the Trash.

   • ~/Library/Application Support/IMVU

     

   Also check the following subfolders for the files associated with IMVU:

   • ~/Library/Preferences/Flash Player/#Security/FlashPlayerTrust
   • ~/Library/Saved Application State/
   We would recommend that you use a free application Funter to find all the support files of IMVU. This allows you to find any file by name, including hidden ones, and operate them.
