Hello.
I tried out Parallels 12? last month on my brand new iMac running macOS Sierra 10.12.6
I have decided not to purchase it at this time and have been trying to remove the app completely.
So far I have removed much, but in spotlight I still see:
Firefox Web Browser
and
Windows Firewall Control Panel
Both of which are windows apps I ran at one time during my demo. And both have the 2 red bars on the icons which I assume means they are Parallels apps.
My problem is, how to I remove these?
Is there a master remove all app?
I have probably removed a dozen different folders and items and still see these in my spotlight. I rebooted several times too.
Also, I tried rebuilding my spotlight and putting my clone drive and time machine drive in "privacy" mode.
And how do I ensure that any Kernel Extensions have been removed by as well?
Basically I would like to get back to the state my system was before I installed parallels.
