Introduction
Removing the Program
To uninstall the program completely or delete some of its parts, choose Live Home 3D > Uninstall… from the menu. You should then select items that you want to delete and click the Uninstall button. This command is not available in the Mac App Store edition.
To delete the program files and folders, select:
- Remove Live Home 3D Application
- Remove Live Home 3D Preferences
These items can be restored by reinstalling the application.
To delete objects and materials that you have added to the library, select the Remove User Content check box. Be careful! You will not be able to restore the user’s libraries by reinstalling Live Home 3D.
It is possible to backup and later restore custom materials and objects.
Removing the Program Manually
To remove the program manually, remove the following files and folders depending on the edition of the program you have, and from where it was downloaded.
