That has NOTHING to do with EtreCheck. Again: You: In the old days, the developer implied that dragging his App to the Trash/Bin removed all trace of it from one's computer. Me: When? Never on macOS... even Classic Mac. So when? Apple IIe? What "old days" did a developer say dragging his app via dragging to Trash removed all traces? The answer is: NEVER. This has NEVER been how macOS, or even Classic Mac, worked. >>>> Are you OK?

Being on the Apple App Store, or being notarized by Apple in general,does not mean Apple has in any significant way investigated, endorsed, or certified a developer’s trustworthiness in the way you are implying.

The earliest WBM archive of that page. 22 October 2022. https://web.archive.org/web/20221022023945/https://www.etrecheck.com/en/details.html The text was a bit different but the idea has been there since at least then. > https://www.etrecheck.com/en/details.html > > I hope that clarifies matters for you. It shows the developer has been very open about the old reports for a long time. It is a non-issue. -- It's impossible for someone who is at war with themselves to be at peace with you.
