Hi, i would like to know which the process for a clear uninstall? I delete the accessibility permission i give to app and then using appcleaner i delete the app and related files. Is that enough?

I'm not sure what exactly appcleaner uninstalls, but there's usually also a preferences file. You should be able to find it when you enter the following in terminal:

ls ~/Library/Preferences | grep "MonitorControl"

If you see anything (MonitorControl related) there as a result, run:

rm ~/Library/Preferences/me.guillaumeb.MonitorControl.plist
