Uninstall

Where Orb keeps its settings and sessions, and how to remove it cleanly.

Where Orb stores things

Orb keeps everything on your Mac. There is no account and no backend, so removing Orb is a local operation.

  • Settings such as hot keys, launch folders, agent commands, dock sizes, restore-on-launch, and selection capture live in the menu-bar Settings window and persist through UserDefaults.
  • Sessions persist locally under com.orb.sessions so they can be restored on launch.

Removing Orb

  1. Quit Orb from the menu bar.
  2. Move Orb from your Applications folder to the Trash.
  3. To also clear its stored data, remove Orb's UserDefaults preferences and its com.orb.sessions store.

Because Orb never installed your agent's CLI, removing Orb leaves claude, codex, and their logins exactly where they were.
