Bug Description

There are a few that have popped up that I never recall downloading, and they're not in my Applications folder, and I can't find them with a Finder search.

Every method everyone has suggested for getting the little "X" to appear on them has not worked.

Running the script line in Terminal does not work.

Thoughts?

Find and delete the apps in Finder or Launchpad.
Use Terminal to delete apps with this command: sudo rm -rf *.app/ https://www.catneedsbest.com/.
Use an app cleaner like AppCleaner, CleanMyMac X, or AppZapper.
