I installed VDH Companion App on my Mac (OS 10.13.2) today, but now I want to uninstall it. How can I do this?
Thanks,

Just drag the /Applications/net.download.coapp icon to the trash can.

Yes, I can do that. I just want to make sure that there are no associated files stored elsewhere that I need to delete.
Thanks for your help.

You can also delete:

/Library/Application Support/Mozilla/NativeMessagingHosts/net.downloadhelper.coapp.json
/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/NativeMessagingHosts/net.downloadhelper.coapp.json
/Library/Application Support/Chromium/NativeMessagingHosts/net.downloadhelper.coapp.json

These are small manifest files. It's harmless to keep them.

Use the command below:

~/net.downloadhelper.coapp-1.3.0/bin/net.downloadhelper.coapp-linux-64 uninstall --user

And remove the extension "downloadhelper"

Thanks so much to @mig and @Giltonnascimento for your straightforward replies.
I feel safer having removed those files.
