Where Does AlDente Store Settings and Helper Files?
AlDente keeps its privileged helper and launch daemon in system Library, with user prefs inferred from its bundle ID. No support folder exists.
Last updated
AlDente splits into user space and system space. The documented half is the privileged helper with its launch daemon in system Library, installed from inside the app bundle. That pair does the actual charge limiting.
The user half is thinner. Preferences follow from the verified bundle ID by Apple convention, though no vendor page spells out the filename. No support folder exists to quote. Uninstall through the app so the daemon leaves with the UI.
Where AlDente stores this, by platform
/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.apphousekitchen.aldente-pro.helper
Privileged helper binary doing the charge limiting, managed with its daemon plist below. Installed from the app bundle on first run. Removing the app without the helper orphans enforcement.
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apphousekitchen.aldente-pro.helper.plist
Launch daemon loading the helper at boot. Use the in-app uninstaller on current versions to remove both system entries. User prefs inferred from the bundle ID live separately in Preferences.
Frequently asked questions
How do I fully uninstall AlDente?
Remove the helper tool and its launch daemon from system Library using the in-app uninstaller on recent versions. Deleting the app bundle alone orphans the daemon, which keeps enforcing limits after the UI is gone.
Where is the AlDente preferences file?
Look for the bundle-ID plist under user Preferences, inferred from the verified com.apphousekitchen.aldente-pro identifier. No vendor page names it explicitly, so treat it as convention rather than spec. The helper paths below are the documented half.
Where is the AlDente Application Support folder?
No source supports one. Despite guesses online, no Application Support folder for this app is documented. Settings plus the helper pair cover the install, so skip any support-folder hunting.
