Got sick of the Nvidia stuff and have moved over to a Sapphire Nitro+ RX580 , I have managed to remove the Nvidia web drivers no problem but I cannot find where to remove the Cuda drivers from as it always pops up on startup.

I have searched around and the places people say the install script is I don't have it.

Any ideas.
 
I was working on a script to remove CUDA, but in the meantime I just made a fresh install. These are the commands I was planning to include
Code:
kextunload /Library/StagedExtensions/Library/Extensions/CUDA.kext
rm -r /Library/StagedExtensions/Library/Extensions/CUDA.kext
kextunload /Library/Extensions/CUDA.kext
rm -r /Library/Extensions/CUDA.kext
rm -r /Library/Frameworks/CUDA.framework
rm -r /Library/LaunchAgents/com.nvidia.CUDASoftwareUpdate.plist
rm -r /Library/PreferencePanes/CUDA\ Preferences.prefPane
rm -r /usr/local/cuda
rm /Library/Preferences/com.nvidia.CUDAPref.plist
rm /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.nvidia.cudad.plist
rm /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.nvidia.cuda.launcher.plist
rm -rf /private/var/db/receipts/com.nvidia.cuda*
kextcache -i /
Some require sudo, so best to start Terminal enter sudo su and run them after.
Maybe @vulgo can help with a nice script.

You sir are a Cuda removing God, done and dusted and removed.

There was no /Library/StagedExtensions/Library/Extensions/CUDA.kext , but everything else was as you listed.

Thank you much appreciated.
