BHUninstaller v0.2.8

It opens as a window now. On a smaller desktop — or one reporting a fractional display scale, which a virtual machine does — the app filled nearly the whole screen on first launch. It now takes at most about three quarters of the desktop, and rather less on a large display. Making it bigger is your decision, and the maximise button is where it always was.

The reason the same complaint survived the previous release is worth stating: the code that fits the window to the screen asks which monitor the window is on, and it runs before the window is shown — so on Wayland there was no answer yet and the whole thing quietly did nothing, sizing and centring both. The cap added last time was never reached.

Which file to download

• Mac, Apple silicon (M1–M4) — BHUninstaller_0.2.8_aarch64.dmg
• Mac, Intel — BHUninstaller_0.2.8_x64.dmg
• Windows — BHUninstaller_0.2.8_x64-setup.exe (or the .msi)
• Linux, x86_64 — BHUninstaller_0.2.8_amd64.deb or BHUninstaller-0.2.8-1.x86_64.rpm
• Linux, arm64 (including a VM on an Apple-silicon Mac) — BHUninstaller_0.2.8_arm64.deb or BHUninstaller-0.2.8-1.aarch64.rpm

Install a .deb with sudo apt install ./BHUninstaller_0.2.8_arm64.deb — apt pulls in the two libraries it needs, dpkg -i will not.

Worth knowing

macOS: if Full Disk Access stops working after updating, remove BHUninstaller from the list and add it again. The app is ad-hoc signed rather than signed with an Apple Developer ID, so macOS identifies it by a fingerprint that changes with every build — the entry stays in System Settings looking switched on while no longer applying.

macOS builds are ad-hoc signed and not notarised, so the first launch needs right-click → Open, or Open Anyway in System Settings → Privacy & Security.
