4.1 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.pkg 
rm -r ftdiusbserialdriverinstallerPostflight.pkg 
rm -r ftdiusbserialdriverinstallerPreflight.pkg 
 
To temporarily operate as the root user you can use sudo at the beginning of the command 
 
e.g. 
 
 cd /System/Library/Extensions 
sudo rm -r FTDIUSBSerialDriver.kext 
 
cd /Library/Receipts 
sudo rm -r ftdiusbserialdriver.pkg 
sudo rm -r ftdiusbserialdriverinstallerPostflight.pkg 
sudo rm -r ftdiusbserialdriverinstallerPreflight.pkg 
 
 
The driver will then be removed from the system.
