CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 569

A user accidentally installed the incorrect word processing application on an iMac. Which of the following would allow the user to uninstall the incorrect application?

Answer options

• A. Move the application to the desktop and press delete.
• B. Identify the application in Finder and drag it to the trash can.
• C. Use Spotlight to search for the application, and then run the application.
• D. Use Time Machine to go back to the date before the installation.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because dragging the application to the trash can is the standard method for uninstalling applications on macOS. Option A is incorrect as moving the application to the desktop does not uninstall it. Option C does not help in uninstalling the application since it only opens it. Option D is not a practical solution for uninstalling software, as it involves restoring the entire system to a previous state.
