<div dir="ltr">Dear Sarah,<div><br></div><div>The info at <a href="https://guide.macports.org/#installing.macports.uninstalling">https://guide.macports.org/#installing.macports.uninstalling</a> only says that uninstalling is a drastic step in the context of trying to solve some issue with macports (i.e. it could probably solved without uninstalling). But there is no problem with uninstalling macports otherwise. You can just follow the steps at that link.</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>David</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, Mar 12, 2023 at 2:36 PM Sarah Zinsmeister <<a href="mailto:sarah.zinsmeister@web.de">sarah.zinsmeister@web.de</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div class="msg6036045231679135369"><div lang="DE" style="overflow-wrap: break-word;"><div class="m_6036045231679135369WordSection1"><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:-webkit-standard,serif;color:black">Dear Macports-User,<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:-webkit-standard,serif;color:black"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:-webkit-standard,serif;color:black">I am unfortunately as other than an IT expert, so because I actually thought this was a program to back up websites, I installed Macports. If I have understood that rudimentary somehow, Macports would just now allow me to install e.g. non-Mac-compatible software. Well, I did not want or I also have no idea what negative effects this could now have on my macbook. I'm also trying to get support from IT friends, but maybe someone can answer my very simple question: How can I uninstall macports again and does it also pose risks to me if I did nothing with the program? (I write you because in the FAQs it says: It’s a drastic step.)</span><span lang="EN-US" style="color:black"><br><br></span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:-webkit-standard,serif;color:black">Thank you so much in advance!
