Delete Little Snitch.kext
Posted By admin On 12.12.20In order to perform its duty, Little Snitch needs to add components to a very low level of the operating system, which also need to be registered and unregistered with the system. It is therefore not sufficient to just remove all of Little Snitch’s application bundles. Instead, Little Snitch Uninstaller must be run.
Little Snitch Uninstaller
The easiest way to open the Little Snitch Uninstaller is to drag Little Snitch Configuration from the Applications folder to the trash. Little Snitch’s background processes notice this and automatically start the uninstaller that is located in /Library/Little Snitch/Little Snitch Uninstaller.app
.
Alternatively, the Little Snitch Uninstaller can be found in the Little Snitch .dmg
disk image file, next to the Installer. If you don’t have the disk image at hand, you can always download the current version from our website.
It did pop up a weird error, that the Little Snitch kext was not supported on the machine. I think what happened is when OS X saw that the kernel extensions were being updated on the attached disk, it tried to rebuild the kernel extension cache on that disk. https://toayjy.over-blog.com/2020/10/screen-sharing-software-mac-free.html. Hi, I'm having what appears to be the same problem on a G5 dual 1.8 (early model) running 10.5.5. After running Applejack as 'applejack auto restart' the G5 repeatedly comes up with 'you must restart your computer' warnings when powered up. This G5 was upgraded from 10.4 and will have had little snitch 1 on it at some point. Two weeks with only Little Snitch kext, no crash. I’ll switch to only Sophos kext for two weeks. – vonlost Jan 14 at 2:36 @vonlost I have zero non-apple kexts, but it the problem still comes back after the first boot after NVRAM reset:( – neu242 Jan 19 at 15:18. No need to delete the drive to reinstall; reinstall option does not delete data, that would be done prior to reinstall, using the Disk Utility option. is the Disk Utility option.
The uninstallation process itself is straight forward, with only one option to choose: Whether you want to remove your rules and settings or not. After the process is finished, you must restart your computer.
If you enable the option to remove rules and settings, the Uninstaller deletes all your system-wide configuration and rules files (also any files from older Little Snitch installations), including the file that stores your license information, as well as the configuration files, rules files and log files for the user executing the Uninstaller.

In my case, it was caused by Little Snitch, which apparently prevented the installer from connecting to the update server. I can imagine that this could be similar for other firewall software. In the end, I solved the problem by booting into single user mode and deleting the Little Snitch kext.
