For a long time, Google’s Chrome browser has been controversial. On the one hand, it is favored for its powerful and rich functions, and on the other hand, it has been criticized for occupying too much system resources. Recently, Keystone, a component used to upgrade Google applications such as Chrome in the macOS system, has caused controversy.
Chrome may start a service called Keystone. Even if you are not running Chrome, your Mac will be severely slowed down. So how to completely delete Chrome and Keystone?
Let's learn together: 1. First, go to the "Applications" folder and drag Chrome into the trash.
2. In the "Finder", click "Go"-"Go to Folder" in the upper left corner of the screen, enter /Library and confirm to go to the resource library.
3. Check the following folders: LaunchAgents, LaunchDaemons, Application Support, Caches, Preferences.
It should be noted that all Google folders and any folders named starting with com.google…… or com.google.keystone…… must be deleted here.
4. Enter "Go to Folder" again.
5. Enter ~/Library and
press Enter (note the "~" symbol) to check the following folders: LaunchAgents, Application Support, Caches, Preferences.
Delete all Google folders: including any other folders named with com.google…… or com.google.keystone…….
6. Finally, clean the trash and restart the Mac.
At this point, Chrome and Keystone on the Mac have been completely removed.
