Uninstall USB Overdrive
USB Overdrive is a utility for Mac that allows users to customize the behavior of USB mice, trackballs, joysticks, and other input devices. It extends macOS's native input device support with advanced features like programmable buttons, custom sensitivity curves, and device-specific profiles. The app is typically used by professionals, gamers, and power users who need fine-grained control over their peripheral devices beyond what the system offers natively. Uninstall USB Overdrive (version 4.0.1) is the removal/uninstaller tool associated with the USB Overdrive application suite.
Suggested Replacements
1 suggestionNo native Apple Silicon version of USB Overdrive or its uninstaller has been released. The developer appears to have ceased active development—the latest version (4.0.1) is several years old, with no recent updates addressing Apple Silicon support. Since macOS Big Sur, Apple Silicon Macs have benefited from improved native USB device support, and most third-party input devices now work without additional drivers. We recommend checking System Preferences > Trackpad and System Preferences > Mouse for built-in customization options first. If you need advanced device customization beyond macOS defaults, consider Karabiner-Elements (a free, actively maintained utility for key remapping and input customization) or investigate whether your specific USB device manufacturer offers a native Apple Silicon driver. To remove USB Overdrive from an Intel Mac before transitioning, use the app's uninstaller or move the main application to Trash and search for related preference files in ~/Library/Preferences and ~/Library/Application Support.
