Solution 1: use of conventional uninstall methods
Mac takes the whole concept of uninstalling much easier than Windows because uninstalling and removing refer to the same thing.. Dragging an application from the Applications folder directly to the trash is equivalent to uninstalling it in Windows. Check it out below!
-
Access your Mac with an administrator account. If you are not logged in with an administrator account, you will be prompted to enter a password when you try to remove something.
-
To find out if your account has administrator rights, click on the apple menu, select System Preferences and then choose Users and Groups. Check that your account appears as “Administrator”.
-
Open your applications folder. Find the program you want to uninstall. Some programs are represented by a single icon, como Firefox, while others are a multi-icon folder, like Microsoft Office. Find League of Legends in the list.
-
Programs may be elsewhere, like the desktop.

-
Trash acts as a safety buffer in case you accidentally delete something. If you open the Trash, you can view its content and drag items if necessary.
-
Empty your trash. Once you are sure that you will not need the programs again, you can empty the Trash, which will free up space on your computer. To empty the trash, right click on the trash can icon, select “Empty trash” and then click Empty Trash to confirm.
-
You can quickly empty the trash by pressing Command + Shift + Supr. If you do not want to be asked for confirmation, press Command + Shift + Option + Delete instead.
Solution 2: rinse after removal
Even if you have uninstalled League of Legends, some files are probably left on your Mac OS X computer, so it is better to clean them. These files can also affect your system later.
-
Open the library folder. Even though the program has been removed, it is possible that there are pending files on the hard disk. These preference files are generally quite small and may be worth keeping if you reinstall the app to finish.. If you do not plan to use the program again, you can remove these files permanently.
-
