How to Uninstall CrossOver on Mac - 2 Easy Ways

CrossOver is a tool that helps Mac users play Windows games. The game Black Myth: Wukong has become quite popular recently, and many Mac users are eager to try it out. Some of you might have downloaded CrossOver to play Black Myth: Wukong on your Mac.

However, many users have found that their Mac might not be well-suited for gaming, or that CrossOver and the game take up too much storage space, causing the Mac to run slowly. As a result, you may want to remove the CrossOver application.

This post will provide you with 2 proven ways to uninstall CrossOver on Mac completely. Keep reading for the step-by-step guide.

I tried to play Black Myth: Wukong on my Mac using CrossOver (the game has high system requirements, so it's recommended to use a Mac with the M2 Max chip), but I found it ran poorly. Additionally, after installing Steam with CrossOver, my Mac kept warning me that Your System Has Run Out of Application Memory.

Finally, I decided to uninstall it on my Mac. Using BuhoCleaner, I successfully uninstalled CrossOver and deleted all CrossOver-related files, freeing up 5.08 GB of Mac space. Its Free Up RAM feature helps me get out of the Your System Has Run Out of Application Memory pop-up.
