You probably use Launchpad every now and then for launching apps on your Mac. Your macOS has a number of apps in the Launchpad that you have installed and it’s pretty much useful if you launch apps. But ever thought disabling Launchpad on your Mac?
If you want to turn off the Launchpad for whatever reason or to stop the Launchpad from opening accidentally, here’s how you can disable the Launchpad on your Mac.
How To Disable Launchpad On Your Mac
If you actually did want to remove any of these built-in apps from your Mac, you’d have to disable System Integrity Protection first. We don’t recommend that. However, you can re-enable SIP after and your Mac won’t mind that you’ve deleted Chess.app and other built-in system apps. To open Launchpad, click on F4 (the button that shows a grid of six squares). Locate the app you wish to remove. Press the Opton/Alt key. Now click on Delete to confirm you want to remove the program.
For those who aren’t you using it more obvious, you can straightaway turn it off. To do that, follow these steps.
