Remove All Icons From Dock

I don’t really use the dock that much, and so I get frustrated when I install programs and they add themselves automatically. I needed a way to remove all of the programs out of the dock (downloads, documents, etc will remain). This is what I came up with:

  1. run this applescript:
  2. quit application "Dock"
  3. use plist edit pro and edit this file:
  4. /Users/user/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist
  5. delete all entries under persistent-apps
  6. save
  7. run this applescript:
  8. activate application "Dock"
  9. if that doesn’t work, try running the above applescript again to quit, and then to restart.
