how to uninstall on mac

How to Uninstall on Mac OS?

Title kind of says it all, but just to elaborate I'm playing on Mac OS and the game doesn't run too well and takes up a fair bit of space.

There isn't a clear way to uninstall the game itself, just the launcher.

Since the Mac version is kind of recent there aren't any good guides on uninstalling the game, and the windows ones don't really help given that the file system is quite different

Any advice would  be appreciated

    according to https://forums.swtor.com/topic/938305-welcome-to-the-mac-launcher-open-beta-test/

    The game is installed on the main drive, specifically on ~/Library/Application\ Support/com.broadsword.swtor/Star Wars - The Old Republic/game 

    MacOS doesn't show the Library folder by default, so you may have to go to the Finder and press Shift Command . (Shift with Command and the dot key) to show hidden files.

    You could delete any remaining folders if need after 

  • Hi, thanks so much,

    yeah it seemed to have worked

    I will note that for anyone trying to delete it like me, you might have to try waiting a fair bit for all the files in "Application support" to appear or try clicking "command, shift, dot" multiple times.

    Anyway much appreciated Proxos666
