U2720QM, macOS, uninstall DDM?

Read through all the documentation. I just need to confirm how to completely remove DDM (Dell Display Manager). Is it as simple as dragging the application folder to the trash? There doesn't seem to be any uninstall instructions anywhere.

    To complete remove it, you can delete the files at the following paths:

    /Applications/DDM/
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/Qisda.DDM.Daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/Qisda.DDM.PowerMonitor.plist
    ~/Library/Application Scripts/Qisda.AutoLaunchDDMHelper
    ~/Library/Preferences/Qisda.DDM.plist
    ~/Library/Containers/Qisda.AutoLaunchDDMHelper
    ~/Library/HTTPStorages/Qisda.DDM.plist
    ~/Library/Caches/Qisda.DDM

    The online U2720QM documentation page has the "Dell Display Manager on Mac User's Guide". But it does not discuss how to uninstall the DDM for macOS. We would have to rely on Apple Support for this = How to uninstall apps on your Mac

    Until you find a way to completely remove it from the mac, just deny (uncheck) the boxes you allowed before in settings>Security  & Privacy [Accessibility/Screen Recording] the program will ask again for re-allowing but this time... yes, you guessed right, we won't. and that will force the app to close and be removed from the menu bar.
