App: Just move to trash.

Driver: Old versions of eqMac (circa 2015-2020) were using Kernel Extension Audio Driver (.kext) to capture system audio. The tricky part is that since macOS Catalina Apple decided to not allow unloading of kexts without disabling System Integrity Protection (SIP).

To properly remove KEXT Driver please follow the steps below:

  1. Reboot your Mac and as soon as the screen goes blank press and hold ⌘R (This will boot you into Recovery/Safe Mode)

  2. Run Terminal from the Utilities dropdown menu

  3. Enter: csrutil disable This will disable SIP

  4. Reboot your Mac again, this time don't hold any buttons

  5. Open Terminal.app and enter these commands one by one:

If you have eqMac1 installed (circa 2015-2017): sudo rm -rf /System/Volumes/Data/Library/Extensions/eqMacDriver.kext/ sudo rm -rf /Library/StagedExtensions/Library/Extensions/eqMacDriver.kext/ sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/eqMacDriver.kext/ sudo rm -rf /Library/Extensions/eqMacDriver.kext/

If you have eqMac2 installed (circa 2017-2020): sudo rm -rf /System/Volumes/Data/Library/Extensions/eqMac2Driver.kext/ sudo rm -rf /Library/StagedExtensions/Library/Extensions/eqMac2Driver.kext/ sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/eqMac2Driver.kext/ sudo rm -rf /Library/Extensions/eqMac2Driver.kext/

Ignore any errors if you see any. This will remove all the possible eqMac related .kext files.

  1. Follow steps 1 and 2
  2. This time enter: csrutil enable This will enable SIP
  3. Reboot

Now you should have all the drivers uninstall.
