![]() It truly does one thing and it does it well. It is a shareware app by Thomas Tempelmann. This is when I stumbled upon Find Any File or abbreviated FAF. Spotlight did not find anything related to the app or its developer. It may be a quirk of mine, but I cannot stand having stuff left on my Mac that I want to get rid off, but just cannot. The app still was listed under “Allow in the Background” and at other places. Although I have Hazel’s App Sweep activated, I ended up with some app crud left on my Mac. Yesterday I had to delete an app because it did not work any longer for me. Christian’s review is short and to the point and Find Any File sounds like a lovely app. I find it sounds odd to hear someone else’s words coming from me, but I’m going to make an exception here. Have a very merry Christmas and thank you for everything!Ĭhristian sent along his review, and I love that he pre-empted my request to have him record the review himself. It is absolutely fine with me if you do not have any use for this review. It occurred to me that it might be an idea to send a little review as I could not find one on ~~ (and no, I really do not feel comfortable recording the review). Today I stumbled upon a little app that is called Find Any File. The oahd is the management daemon for the AOT files.This week I got an email with a review from Christian: aot comes from Ahead-Of-Time, which means that the translation is performed before a thread actually starts. aot contains the result of the translation from x86_64 to arm64. You'll find just a few preferences files, that could be trashed directly from FAF, and you should also get these 4 untrashable files from Rosetta2.ĮDIT: About the aot file extension, some info there. Then, use FAF to find all the "menuffy" files. Install it (link given in my first message above), run it just to see what it's doing (it's very simple, the interface is very simplistic), then trash it. ![]() Since the menuffy isn't a malware, I suggest you do the exercice. According to the Finder, the directory is empty. ![]() But using sudo in the console, we're unable to view what's inside the directory, and even the directory size doesn't match the info from FAF. FAF gives the whole exact path, and can get info on them. When I use it to search all files with the name "menuffy" in it (after I trashed the useless app), it found 4 files in that directory. And yet, the app is supposed to be native on Silicon Macs ( menuffy is an universal app), so I don't understand why Rosetta2 was involved in this.Ĭlick to expand.Well, it's apparently the magic of this app (Find Any File = FAF). Is that right?Īnd is there a way to know what's in these 4 weird menuffy.aot files? My search tool can tell me some info on them (94KB to 98KB, each file), their creation date (about the time of installation of menuffy), and their owner: _oahd. But then, how the app menuffy could have created these files there? I guess it's - apparently - the OS itself that made them, so it's probably not the app itself (?).ĪFAIK, there isn't any possibility to uninstall/remove/erase Rosetta2 and reinstall it from scratch. This is apparently a sealed part of the OS, to protect against "Bad Actor" Software. So I'm unable to remove the four menuffy.aot files (even with the sudo command in the Terminal). ![]() The /private/var/db/oah directory isn't accessible by the admin user (the owner is called "_oahd"), and was apparently created by Rosetta2 (according to what I found on the Web). I then found four files called menuffy.aot (about 95KB each), inside some directories with large numbers in their name, which are located in the /private/var/db/oah directory. After trashing it, I searched for all the files that were created by this app, using a good search tool ( Find Any File, which is pretty good). Today, I made a "small" mistake by installing an app that I didn't liked: menuffy (from this place: ).
