How to remove "xhcdump"

[joebrod]

Can someone refer me to a link on how to find and remove the "xhcdump" file that was installed with the USB 3 kext from multibeast? In the thread I am following they say say it is hidden and here - "/usr/local/bin/". Is that a terminal command?

You can download a utility called ShowAllFiles from here : http://www.tonymacx86.com/downloads.php?do=cat&id=10

This will allow you to see files that are usually hidden.

"/usr/local/bin/" is not a terminal command, it is the path to the file.

I'm not sure why you want to remove it but, the easy way through Terminal is:

rm `which xhcdump`

Thanks for the info guys. I will give it a try. I want to remove it as per a suggestion concerning my MoBo & making USB3 work correctly.

xhcdump has nothing to do with 'making US3 work correctly'. It is a diagnostic command line utilitiy for GenericUSBXHCI.kext.

Figure it won't hurt to try

Key part of that post is in bold face:

Have you tried to delete that Generic USB3 kext ?
You also have to delete xhcdump file located in (hidden) usr/local/bin.
Repair diskpermissions and rebuild cache.

Deleting xhcdump simply doesn't matter.

K, I'll try it without deleting it. i assume I use something like Kext Wizard to rebuild permissions & rebuild cache?
