How can it be completely uninstalled?
I would like to be able to uninstall the driver, but haven't found any documentation on how to accomplish that task. Can you point me in the right direction?
@mcfarljw did you figure out how to uninstall it? I'm also trying to find out.
Edit:
I'm not sure if this completely uninstalls the driver (i.e., removes all traces of it), but I was able to at least remove it for all intents and purposes by deleting the following files:
/System/Library/Extensions/360Controller.kext
/System/Library/Extensions/Wireless360Controller.kext
and then going to System Preferences > right clicking on Xbox 360 controllers preference pane and removing it.
It's been awhile since I removed it, but I ended up running some script in the terminal window. I am also not sure if I completely uninstalled it, but it appears to be gone.
@Sachiano - thanks for your help. The driver was crashing my macbook every time I plugged it in. There's a third file that seems to be part of the installation, but I can't remember the name now. It has the same datestamp as the other two files. But thanks for flagging up which folder it's in for me!
I'm cleaning up a v0.12 installation tonight before migrating to the newer 360Controller fork. After consulting the v0.12 project's source code the following (rather long) shell command found all of the files I needed to delete:
sudo find /{Library,System} -iname 360Controller* -or -iname 360Daemon* -or -iname Feedback360* -or -iname Wireless360Controller* -or -iname WirelessGamingReceiver*
Which amounts to (note the backslash in Application Support):
sudo rm -rf /Library/Application\ Support/MICE/360Daemon.app
sudo rm -rf /Library/Extensions/360Controller.kext
sudo rm -rf /Library/Extensions/Wireless360Controller.kext
sudo rm -rf /Library/Extensions/WirelessGamingReceiver.kext
sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/360Controller.kext
... followed by a reboot.
HTH.
Oops, I missed one. There's also the System Preferences Xbox360 Controllers item in System Preferences:
sudo find /{Library,System} -iname Pref360Control*
Which leads to:
sudo rm -rf /Library/PreferencePanes/Pref360Control.prefPane
This one doesn't require a reboot.
sudo find /System /Library \( -iname "360Controller*" -o -iname "360Daemon*" -o -iname "Feedback360*" -o -iname "Wireless360Controller*" -o -iname "WirelessGamingReceiver*" -o -iname "Pref360Control*" \) -exec sudo rm -rf {} \;
Not sure if this is an issue people are still facing but I wrapped @antman2's comment into a one liner
After deleting above files and restarted computer, there is still a process named "http://tattiebogle.net" running in background. I should never had installed this.
Somebody know what could be happening?
Are you sure that isn’t from a Safari subprocess? I can’t think of anything from the driver that would be named like that. On Aug 6, 2017, at 9:20 PM, Victor Dolirio Ferreira Barbosa <[email protected]mailto:[email protected]> wrote:
