Dazzla Veteran Posted July 3, 2002 Veteran Share Posted July 3, 2002 Originally posted by lebmike in OS9.1 how do you "add/remove" programs? Mike I'm pretty sure it's the same as OS X, just drag the folder to the trash. I only used OS 9 for about 5 minutes. I've never used it since. I don't have it installed for classic either.

Zerosignull Posted July 3, 2002 Share Posted July 3, 2002 Originally posted by sailgreg There is no registry so where are settings stored? There is no INI files either :) macs have a "preferences folder" in the "system folder". in this folder loads of little files are stored with prefrences for each preogram im much the same way as the registry in wondows holds preferences for each program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nova_rock Posted July 3, 2002 Share Posted July 3, 2002 yah, mac os's u just delete the folder, and if u have to get rid of the 1kb files laying around u just search for the prog name and delete all thta comes up. or use "clean sweep" it finds every little bit of unused garbage laying around and kills it. on OS 9 and below there are pref's files and extentions but that ios done away with X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzla Veteran Posted July 3, 2002 Veteran Share Posted July 3, 2002 Originally posted by BroChaos i doubt it's as cluttered and disorganized as the registry. the registry is the biggest POS. Well, here's the nastiest it gets on OS X: http://idisk.mac.com/dazzla2/Public/prefs.jpg Ignore the barely started E-Platino for OS X :D those files are roughly around 4kb each so if you don't delete them, it isn't going to make a difference on your system. If you're really fussy, just sherlock the files and drag the lot into the trash instead of the one .app :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
