Uninstalling Mac Forwarder

Step 1: Generate a Maintenance Token

Log in to the Stairwell Console and navigate to the Assets tab.

1. Click Forwarder Maintenance Token.
2. Select Generate to create a new token.
3. Copy the generated token for later use.

Note: Maintenance tokens are tied to a specific environment. If you manage multiple environments, ensure you select the correct one before generating the token. Tokens are valid for 14 days.

Step 2: Unlock the Forwarder

Use the token to disable anti-tamper protections:

sudo "/Applications/Inception Forwarder.app/Contents/MacOS/Inception Forwarder" unlock --token [your token here]

Replace [your token here] with the token you generated in Step 1.

Step 3: Uninstall the System Extension

Run the following command to remove the Forwarder system extension:

sudo "/Applications/Inception Forwarder.app/Contents/MacOS/Inception Forwarder" uninstall-extension

Tip: This step is optional, but strongly recommended. Skipping it may cause issues when deleting the application.

Step 4: Remove the Inception Forwarder Application

Delete the application using either Finder or the Terminal:

• Finder: Drag Inception Forwarder.app from the /Applications folder to the Trash.
• Terminal: Run: sudo rm -rf "/Applications/Inception Forwarder.app"

Summary

1. Generate a maintenance token.
2. Unlock the Forwarder with the token.
3. Uninstall the system extension.
4. Delete the Forwarder application.

Performing the steps in this order ensures a smooth and reliable uninstall process.
