Remove a file from Mac Mini M2Pro

[holty]

I tried a trial version of Tuxera NTFS and wasn’t happy, and deleted it using the APPDELETE.app, unfortunately (1 ) file still remained and I can’t delete it not matter what I do. I am told I don’t have permission and whilst I go to "get info" the permission table looks normal, however I make changes, and I am still unsuccessful. Any assistance would be appreciated.
The file resides in : Macintosh HD >Library >StagedExtenions >Library >Filesystems >tuxera_ntfs.fs
M2 Mac mini Pro OS 13.5

... I bet the owner is root, the group is wheel.

You may try the Terminal command:

sudo rm -f <filename>

which asks you for a password.

Be careful with 'sudo': it's dynamite.

and deleted it using the APPDELETE.app

In this case, it is better to use the inbuilt uninstaller. See:

If other ways don't work, I suggest you reinstall and the use the uninstaller.

The file resides in : Macintosh HD >Library >StagedExtenions >Library >Filesystems >tuxera_ntfs.fs

That folder is SIP protected, so the normal deletion methods won't work. You have to:

1) Make sure the unwanted extension is deleted from /Library/Extensions first, then
2) reboot (essential!), so as to trigger the kernelmanagerd to remove it from the staged area.

If that doesn't remove the staged extension, then try:

sudo kmutil clear-staging
