System Information reveals location

details among other data about each app

and which shouldn’t be launched by a user. Others

have to be in a particular folder to be accessible by

Safari or other software.

If you’re trying to clean out unneeded and

unwanted apps, or are engaged in a 32-bit purge

you can use System Information to help.

This utility gathers all the detail about hardware

and software on your computer, including

navigation bar under Software, and wait for the
