Steps to completely remove WD SmartWare from your Mac:
- Run the SmartWare uninstaller application located in /Applications/
- Using Apple’s Activity Monitor from /Applications/Utilities quit the following processes:
WDDMService
WD Quick View
SmartwareServerApp
- Delete /Library/LaunchDeamons/com.wdc.WDDMService.plist (Entry that causes WDDM to start.)
- Delete /Library/LaunchDeamons/com.wdc.WDSmartWareServer.plist (Entry that causes the SmartWare Server to start.)
- Delete /Applications Support/WDSmartware (Removes all SmartWare support programs)
- Delete /Application/WDSmartWare (SmartWare user interface)
- Delete Library/Preferences/com.wdc.smartware.plist
- From System Preferences->Users Login Items remove WDQuickview for all users. (Entry that runs WD Quick View when a user logs in. There should be a single entry for all users. Deleting it from one any account should remove it for all accounts.)
