I started to install bitcoin node using dmg file. I decided to stop the install after 3 days and used Clean My Mac to uninstall the app. I then checked and the ~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin directory is still there with 51 Gigabytes! I'd like to completely remove this!

HOW?

I get an error under all ways that say cannot be moved to Trash error -43.

Finally in desperation, I selected the directory in the Finder, then holding down the Option key, selected Delete Immediately in the Finder File menu. After asking me, it then deleted the file.
