Uninstalling VCP Drivers

To remove the drivers from Mac OS X, the user must be logged on as root. Root is a reserved username that has the privileges required to access all files.

Start a Terminal session (Go > Applications > Utilities > Terminal) and enter the following commands at the command prompt:

   cd /System/Library/Extensions
   rm -r FTDIUSBSerialDriver.kext

   cd /Library/Receipts
   rm -r FTDIUSBSerialDriver.kext


The driver will then be removed from the system.

To remove the port from the system, run the application SystemPreferences and select Network. Selecting Network Port Configurations from the Show menu will display the port as greyed out. Select the uninstalled port and click Delete. Confirm the deletion to remove the port.
