How To Uninstall The Sims3

1. The standard and easiest way to uninstall The Sims3:

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 "The Sims3".
 - Click on "Move to Bin" (or "Move to Trash" on older versions of macOS)

2. How to remove The Sims3 using the Terminal:

 - Open the macOS Terminal from Applications > Utilities.
 - Type killall cider, hit ENTER
 - Type rm -rf "/Applications/The Sims 3.localized/The Sims3.app", then hit ENTER.
 - If that fails, try typing sudo rm -rf "/Applications/The Sims 3.localized/The Sims3.app"
 - Now type rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.transgaming.thesims3, hit ENTER.
