Generally speaking, uninstalling any app on macOS is pretty easy. You might want to remove an app you no longer use to just free up disk space.
Today I'll show you 3 very easy ways to uninstall and completely remove Norton Firewall from your Mac, so let's get straight to it!
First, we need to make sure the app isn't running, so lets open Force Quit (from the Apple menu on the top left of your screen) and terminate the app if you see it running:
- Now, open your Applications folder.
- Right-click on "Norton Firewall".
- Click on "Move to Bin" (or "Move to Trash" on older versions of macOS)
- Open the macOS Terminal from Applications > Utilities.
- Type killall "Norton Firewall", hit ENTER
- Type rm -rf "/Applications/Norton Firewall.app", then hit ENTER.
- If that fails, try typing sudo rm -rf "/Applications/Norton Firewall.app"
- Now type rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.symantec.nortonfirewall, hit ENTER.
This will remove Norton Firewall from your Mac, but some supporting and related files will be left behind. Read on for the best way on how to remove those.
- Open iBoostUp (download free, or search for it on the App Store).
- Click "App Uninstaller".
- Click "Select Application", then select "Norton Firewall" from the list and click "Uninstall".
- Enter your password if prompted, you may choose to skip this by clicking cancel — note that skipping this prompt will leave some files behind that you can remove manually, these will be shown as 'skipped' on the results screen.
This will remove Norton Firewall and all related files from your Mac.
