Ghost Buster Pro
Ghost Buster Pro is a macOS utility that scans for leftover files from apps you already removed and lets you delete the results manually.
What is Ghost Buster Pro?
Ghost Buster Pro is a macOS utility for finding leftover files from apps that have already been uninstalled. It helps users recover storage space by scanning for app-related data that can remain behind after an app itself is removed. The app is aimed at people who want a simpler way to clean up old support files, preferences, and similar remnants without searching through Library folders by hand. Search results are presented for review, and deletion is user-controlled rather than automatic. Ghost Buster Pro also includes an ignore list so you can exclude results you do not want removed. It is published by Sascha Simon and distributed for Mac through the App Store.
Key features
- Scan the Mac for files left behind by previously removed apps

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
Ghost Buster Pro is a cleanup utility, so its core function involves locating and deleting files on your Mac. That kind of file access is normal for the app’s purpose, but any cleanup tool can remove data you may later wish you had kept if you delete results too quickly. Review the findings before removing them, especially if you recognize settings, saved data, or files tied to apps you may reinstall.
Recommendation: Keep Ghost Buster Pro if you actively use it to clean leftover app files or free storage space. If you do not use Mac cleanup tools, you can remove it without affecting macOS itself, though you should expect to lose the app’s saved settings and any ignore list it maintains.
