Question
Is running Flash Player uninstaller twice problematic?
After initially installing Flash Player MAC 9,0 I removed it
from Applications folder via drag icon to Trash because at the time
I did not know how to revert to having Preview as the default
setting when opening PDFs. After discovering how to make that
change, via File ‘Get Info’, I reinstalled Flash
Player. I can’t recall whether I did a second download and
installation (I reinstalled within hours so it was the same version
of Player) or whether I had not emptied Trash and just retrieved
the Adobe icon from Trash. I didn’t know about the need to
use uninstaller at the time.
I have run uninstall_flash_player_osx.dmg once.
After running it the Adobe icon was still in Applications folder and in dock. I dragged both icons to Trash and emptied Trash. However, there are still Adobe items on my mac.
The ones I have found on HD are:
Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities (Last modified: 19.10.2008 11.32 AM);
Library/Application Support/Adobe (19.10.2008 12.02 PM);
Library/Preferences/com.adobe.acrobat.90.sh.plist (19.10.2008 11.32 PM);
Library/Preferences/com.adobe.Reader_x86_9.0.plist (19.10.2008 7.44 PM);
Library/Preferences/com.adobe.Reader.plist (19.10.2008, 11.26 AM).
Does the uninstaller only remove Flash Player from browsers or should these files have gone as well?
Will running uninstaller a second time be problematic?
Would it be best to just delete these files that I have found?
The items in the HD Library folder are also in my admin account Library folder.
Thanks for any assistance offered.
