Making macOS Apps Uninstallable
Is there any tool that can find those leftovers and remove then permanently?

The free AppCleaner was mentioned by another reader earlier in the thread, and I've been happy with CleanMyMac X.

AppCleaner is no good after you deleted an app by other means and it left crap on the hd tho… as far as I recall CleanMyMac was a paid closed course app?

You can still delete all the junk an app leaves behind using this to find it all, then trash them:
