  • sudo rm -rf /Library/LaunchAgents/com.nvidia.CUDASoftwareUpdate.plist
  • sudo rm -rf /System/Library/StartupItems/CUDA
  • sudo rm -rf /usr/local/cuda

Remove the CUDA Preference Pane

  1. Open System Preferences.
  2. Right-click on CUDA.
  3. Click Remove CUDA Preference pane.

Uninstall NVIDIA Web Drivers

  1. Click the NVIDIA icon on the top bar and click on Open NVIDIA Driver Manager Preferences.
  2. Under the Graphics Drivers tab, click on the Lock and type your password.
  3. Click the Open Uninstaller button.
  4. Click Uninstall and then Continue Uninstallation.
