How do I uninstall older 32 bit versions of Photoshop in Catalina?

I have an imac OS 10.15.2 and am currently using CC photoshop 21.0.2. I have an older 32 bit version of photoshop on my computer, PS and would like to uninstall it as I haven't used CS5 in years, but the uninstaller for CS5 doesn't work because CS5 isn't compatable with catalina.  When I click the uninstaller for CS5 I get this message: "The developer of this app needs to update it to work with this version of mac OS. Contact the developer for more information."

 

How then can I remove CS5, given that the uninstaller for the app no longer works in Catalina?

Thanks.

There is no such thing as uninstall on Mac. Just drag it to the Trash and move on. If you want to free up more space you can delete the CS5 files in your Application Support folders.

Try the Adobe Cloud Cleaner Tool to selectively uninstall CS5
