Do you want to know how to uninstall steam or a game on steam?
If you want to uninstall steam, drag the steam app in the trash and delete Steam Content in the Documents folder. If you want to uninstall a game from steam, right click on the game in steam and click delete local content. |

First here: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_...3329-WUJN-5636
After that you will want to check your Home folder for a new Applications folder where little launcher files (not super big) like Portal will have been installed. This is not the Applications folder on you Macintosh HD/Applications. It is ~/Applications, in your home folder, just like Documents or Photos or Music or Movies. Secondly check in your ~/Library/Application Support for any game or company that you downloaded games for. (Example if you downloaded the Torchlight demo you will need to delete the "runic games" folder from ~/Library/Application Support, which contains all of the saved games and setting data) If you are not sure about a folder in the Application Support... don't delete it, better safe then sorry. |

rm -R ~/Library/Application\ Support/Steam/ Code:
rm -R ~/Documents/Steam\ Content/ Code:
