Some time people use their Mac computer for specific purpose and they want some required applications to run and ready at start-up automatically or even you don’t use Mac for specific work you may need to run some programs on start-up like Mail, Chat, Music and more… so Mac OS X gives you an option to specify applications to run at start-up.
Uninstalling an application is as simple as opening a Finder window, clicking “Applications” in the sidebar, Control-clicking or right-clicking the application’s icon, and selecting “Move to Trash.”. You can also drag-and-drop an application’s icon to the trash can icon on your dock. Or, open the Launchpad interface and drag-and-drop an application’s icon to the trash can from there.
