Q: Tuxera NTFS 2015 : Can't totally remove from my Mac. Hi, I seem to have biggest frustration with this software when each time I plugged my usb external HDD, there is always this message popping up; "Tuxera NTFS for Mac: Trial expired. Your 15 day trial has expired. Please purchase a product key to continue using Tuxera NTFS for Mac, or uninstall the product from the Tuxera NTFS preference pane (→System preferences ...→Tuxera NTFS)."
Things I've done to remove this software HERE but to no avail. I even did OS X recovery, no go as well. A little help and suggestion really appreciated! OS X El Capitan. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7396598?start=0&tstart=0

Did you peruse its instructions ? They are available here: http://tuxera.com/mac/onlinehelp /en/index.htm and state the following:
2.2 Uninstalling Tuxera NTFSfor Mac
Tuxera NTFS for Mac can be easily uninstalled using the Uninstall Tuxera NTFS... button in the Tuxera NTFS preference pane, which will be available in System Preferences once you have installed the package. See section 4 for a description of the other features in the preference pane.

If this should fail for some reason, an uninstall script exists at the following location: /System/Library/Filesystems/fusefs_txantfs.fs//uninstall-package.sh
Never use any so-called "cleaner" or "app zapper" programs to uninstall software, such as the examples cited in the link you posted. Dec 28, 2015 10:17 AM Helpful (0)

Your recourse is to the developer for with their product . If they offer an installer script it may be included with their ed installation package, or you may be able to obtain it from them separately, or you may be able to find out what it does and perform those same actions. Or, you may be compelled to purchase their product just so that you can uninstall it properly. Good luck. Dec 28, 2015 12 :46 PM Helpful (0)

keenobe, I've just solved the same problem. You'd open terminal and try to run the script with sudo: sudo /System/Library/Filesystems/fusefs_txantfs.fs//uninstall-package.sh

I also tried all of the above options. So searched on "tuxera" (incl. sys files) and deleted all of these files but was still getting the annoying message. so deleted "fusefs_txantfs.fs" and voila!! May 10, 2016 7:27 AM Helpful (0)

In case it helps others : If you are like me, you'll find "fusefs_txantfs.fs" in /Library/Filesystems not /System/Library/Filesystems Oct 23, 2016 11 :19 PM
