Three to four weeks ago I read an article which was talking about the project Folding@Home which helps researchers find a cure for the CoVid-19. Since then my Mac has been pretty noisy, although the idea was to run the software when I was not working on my Mac. Today I noticed that despite not having so much running on the Mac it is noisy and also kind of hot underneath. In the iStat, i found out that the FAHclient was taking the most of the CPU power (even when not running it). I uninstalled the software and its client is still running in the background. I also terminated the process related to it in the terminal: > ps aux | grep fah > > kill *the pid* iStat How can I uninstall it completely as it's not letting me concentrate since a while.
