If you have any questions, problems or issues on removing Office 2016 from your Mac, let us know in the comments below. Microsoft has posted full instructions on how to do this here but it’s a messy, time-consuming process that yields no better results than using AppCleaner. You must then manually remove all of the separate components and folders that are not removed using this method. Then Ctrl-click or right-click and select Move to Trash:

Microsoft Excel, OneNote, Outlook, PowerPoint and Word. Hold down the CMD key next to the space bar and select all Office 2016 for Mac programs that are installed i.e.

Go to your Applications folder in Finder. Here’s how to remove Office 2016 for Mac manually. However, you can also remove Office for Mac 2016 manually if you want to but we don’t recommend it because it’s considerably more complicated and only does exactly the same thing as AppCleaner. Using AppCleaner is the quickest and easiest way to ensure that Office 2016 for Mac is removed from your Mac. Note that there are also other uninstallers such as AppZapper that do the same job as AppCleaner but AppZapper costs $12.99 whereas AppCleaner is free. You will be simply asked for your admin password to complete the uninstall which will be done instantly when you click Remove. Here’s an example uninstalling Microsoft Remote Desktop: Simply select or search for Microsoft Office 2016 applications, make sure all the folders and files you want to remove are selected and click Remove. It searches for all files and folders associated with Microsoft Office and then deletes them all during installation. AppCleaner is a free tool which properly uninstalls applications in your Mac.
