Adobe Illustrator 2021 (other) - Launchpad MacBook

Hi, I have a problem with this "Adobe Illustrator 2021 (other)" app. I can't delete it from Launchpad, despite uninstalling the whole suite and Creative Cloud itself. What can I do?

 

Thanks in advance!

Hey there! have you found the way to remove it? I was able to remove it by going to the Apple logo > About this mac > Storage > Manage > Applications > scroll down till you find that 3 annoying apps and hit delete. Hope it helps.

Hi all, just open the 3 annoying apps and in your mac docker right click and choose "Show in Finder", after that just delete the appex -> move to bin. Lastly, u will see it disappear. Piece

Hi @Shalini22222527nxlj What type of same issue are you facing? Can you describe what's happening in more detail? A “reset” in this case could mean uninstalling and reinstalling Illustrator. Have you tried that yet?

Hi @raffaelequa I see you haven't had any replies to your question yet, sorry about that! I'm not entirely clear about what you are having trouble with. Is this some type of third-party Illustrator plug-in that you want to remove entirely from your computer and you can't seem to uninstall it? What is Altro referring to? Any more details will help us figure out what might be going on.

Hello Jain!
I was unable to delete the scripts in the launchapad. And finally I proceeded with a reset. I believe it is an Adobe bug due to updates with M1.
