there is a link to the uninstaller on their site. please see BlackHole Virtual Audio Driver - existential audio.


but it does not magically appear. someone had to have installed it. are you or anyone else using QuickTime on the Mac for screen recordings or audio recordings?

Maybe BlackHole was installed together with the program I downloaded

I've not heard of that happening, but I guess anything is possible. but if you or someone else is doing screen or audio recordings, blackhole is a great way to record the sound you hear from the Mac without ambient noise.
