question:has anyone succeeded in uninstalling kite (python autocomplete for spyder) at all locations.

I was tricked into selecting to install it one time installing anaconda/spyder. I’ve since removed all of that including anaconda and followed the now scrubbed uninstall instructions on their (defunct kite’s) website.

However a .kite folder keeps showing up in my ~/

I’ve deleted tons of times and searched thru /library and ~/library

I resorted to locking .kite hoping that if some hidden process were using it it won’t have write access anymore. But admittedly I have no idea what’s creating this dir and the reason for it or if I defeated it by locking that .kite folder down.

Thx




There’s probably an assistant program starting at login. Maybe check in ~/Library/LaunchAgents and /Library/LaunchAgents
