Environmental Reset

Whether you are executing diagnostics for a development rollback, preparing for a major manual upgrade framework, or completely wiping your local profile slate, this guide outlines how to trace and wipe all lingering MemoryBox structural parameters. Enforcing a true local-first footprint means your databases, vector logs, and client profiles reside entirely inside hidden system directories on your hardware. Deleting the primary executable binary wrapper will not touch your local text archives. To completely sanitize your machine, complete the following explicit cleanup tracks.

​
🛠️ Phase 1: Binary & Extension Purge

Begin by removing the core execution programs and deleting client background hooks injected across your internet browser environments.
1

Terminate Background Daemons

Ensure all client ports are closed. Click the primary floating MemoryBox logo within your top menu bar tray and select Quit.
2

Evict Application Bundle

Open your primary Applications directory path within Finder. Locate the MemoryBox application module, right-click it, and select Move to Trash.

​
Deleting Chrome & Firefox Extensions

1

Open Extension Manager

Open a new browser window tab and navigate your address path to chrome://extensions.
2

Remove Pinned Card

Locate the active MemoryBox extension deployment card block and click the Remove button.
3

Clear Volatile Memory Cache

We highly recommend executing a hard restart of your browser application to ensure all runtime text trackers are dropped from web panels.

​
💻 Phase 2: Command Line Database Purge (macOS Only)

For advanced operators or developers looking to execute an instant “Factory Reset” of their data layer without deleting the core application layout wrapper, use the terminal directory script blocks below.
Stop Desktop Processes: Ensure your active workspace processes are closed prior to executing terminal deletion scripts to prevent writing runtime cache errors back to the machine partition.

​
Local Database Footprint Directory

All local database records, index trees, and encrypted structures map to this path:

​
Complete Terminal Reset Execution

To completely wipe out all local databases and vector archives simultaneously, open your terminal app and execute these commands:

​
📂 Phase 3: Manual Graphical Deletion

If you prefer to use a visual file manager (like Finder or File Explorer) rather than the terminal script blocks listed above, you can manually navigate to and delete the hidden storage folders from your system.
1

Expose Path Tools

Bring your macOS Finder window into active focus, click the top application Go menu button, and click Go to Folder….
2

Input Hidden System Path

Paste the following directory path into the field box and press Enter:
3

Sanitize Data Directories

Locate the standalone MemoryBox directory folder and move it entirely into the system Trash.
