Hi All,
Then I took my courage and tried to "manually" cleanup from the Growl listed
app (in the pref pane)
all the useless and forgotten apps that I don't use any more.
You advised me to remove the key (probably from a .plist file hidden somewhere)
but as written hereafter, is there any document for that?
(Nothing found on http://growl.info/documentation.php)
Then I tried on my own:
---------------------------------------
1- Digging into ~/Library/Containers/ I did not found my target
when opening each of the com.growl.*
Then I realized there were another one, hidden above in the directory far from
those one
spelled differently com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp.
=> please, could you rename it com.growl.GrowlHelpApp, that could help another
people from not
seing it if it's listed in another area of the directory.
---------------------------------------
2- Even after exploring the content of com.growl.GrowlHelpApp
I can't find the right file (probably a .plist?) to edit the registered app
and remove the useless ones.
=> please could you tell me more?
What is the right place to edit those mentioned keys?
Thank you by advance,
-Yann.

Hi!
If you decided to remove it (and did not simply forget it) in the new UI,
that's the most important point.
That's a decision.
Nevertheless, I can hardly imagine that people deliberately REMOVE an
application from Growl
and then would complain to have there settings lost for this app ;-) But
everything can happen with users ;-)
The best way could be:
- to reintroduce this simple useful button for the user who wants to clean (or
reset!) its settings for an app
- and to add a very clear alert telling him he will get the result you
mentioned.
Otherwise, manually removing the key would be a solution, not very
user-friendly though... and where is it documented? I'm not sure to do it
correctly if I dare to.
Best regards,
-Yann.

We removed that because a lot of people were clicking it, removing it, then
the app would readd later, and they would complain they lost their settings.
The app being removed in Growl literally just gets rid of settings.
Which you can still do with the delete key. :)

Hi,
In older versions of Growl (with the System Preferences pane) one could
remove an item in the list of registered applications (with a simple minus
button: [-])
In new Growl 2 UI, this minus button has disappeared.
This would be welcome to add this minus button [-] under the list to
remove an application
(for instance if a user wants to totally cleanup an old application).
The current "Get Applications" button, under the list of application,
could be reworked in a plus button [+].
Best regards,
-Yann.
