Seems to me some garbage would be left behind by just deleting the App from the Applications folder. I found one on cnet but I'm not sure it's the same version. At least not from Acronis's official website. Because my demo period has expired I can't seem to get a download link to the software to look for an uninstaller or check the package for an uninstall script or the xml distribution/digest file with the index or digest of files/directories of where installed files will go. Considering that the app has a ton of launchd and plist files, I don't want to just trash it. I can't seem to find instructions on doing a complete uninstall of Acronis True Image 2017 for the Mac.

Please visit the link below and download Acronis's script and follow the instructions. I have deleted my attachment of a plain text file/shell script. Edit: Acronis has now created their own comprehensive uninstaller script.
