Uninstall DuckType
Removing DuckType removes the app, but it does not automatically remove local data or downloaded models. DuckType keeps those files so a reinstall can reuse your settings, history, and model downloads.
Windows
- 1. Open Windows Settings.
- 2. Go to Apps, then Installed apps.
- 3. Find DuckType and choose Uninstall.
macOS
- 1. Quit DuckType.
- 2. Open Applications.
- 3. Move DuckType to Trash.
Optional full cleanup
Delete these folders only if you want DuckType fully removed from this device.
App data folder
Contains settings, database, recordings, dictionaries, skills, and logs. Deleting it removes local history and app settings.
%USERPROFILE%\.ducktype~/.ducktypeModels folder
Contains downloaded local transcription models and dictionaries. Deleting it frees disk space, but DuckType will need to download local models again if you reinstall.
%USERPROFILE%\.ducktype\models~/.ducktype/modelsIf you changed the model location, use the path shown in DuckType Settings, General, Storage, Models folder.
Delete folders from your file manager only after DuckType is closed. If you keep either folder, DuckType can reuse it after reinstalling.
