I've not been able to get Sky Go to work on my Mac Mini (M1, Sonomo 14.1.2) getting a network error every time I try to launch it.
I want to delete the app, but it does not appear in my applications folder. The only visible trace I can find is the icon on the Launchpad window. Where is this app installed? The app runs when I click on the icon in Launchpad, so it's definitely on my system somewhere.
I've tried dragging the Luanchpad window icon to trash, but that doesn't seem to work, and I've already deleted the installer, and gone through the Library folder to delete every sky go file and folder in there.
Thanks!

@Hammer20231 right click on Sky Go -> Show in Finder, you will see that the app is installed in a different Applications folder, that's why you can't see it. Wrong folder? Yes! The folder name is "Applications", but it is located in a different path, different from the classic Mac Applications folder where all the other apps are installed.. Tricky at Sky...

Hey,
Thanks for the quick reply.
I've followed all steps in your post, with the exception of removing the Sky Go app from my applications folder, as it doesn't appear to be in there. Is there another folder it might have been installed in?
Thanks!
