How to remove Stubborn icons after uninstalling epic Games Launcher on Mac Hello guys, I recently installed epic games on my Mac to try something but I wanted to delete the applications since. It sure is deleted but I still have an Icon that says "epic games launcher" and a banned icon (which I will show you with screenshot). This icon can't be deleted like I tried dragging it into the trash - didn't work, I tried with command + delete button - still doesn't work and it I can't press right mouse button on it. Can someone help me? :) [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Try starting up in safe mode and see if you can remove the icon.
