In the event that the normal uninstallation method (drag-and-drop FREEDOME to Trash) does not work, follow the steps below to force start the uninstallation process:

Log on to your Mac as an Administrator.
Open Terminal.
Type in the following command: sudo /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.f-secure.fsvpn-service-helper.production --uninstall-app , and press Enter.
Type in your Administrator password when asked.

Note: Should the above fail, follow the steps below to manually remove FREEDOME.

1. Go to Finder > Go > Go to folder... and manually remove the following files/folders:

/Applications/Freedome.app
/Library/Application Support/F-Secure/FSFreedome/
