DisplayLink Forum - View Single Post - Can Not Seem To Fully Uninstall DisplayLink

I had a look at your debug information and it seems that the driver is correctly uninstalled. The kernel extension is no more loaded by the system and no DisplayLink information are collected. Probably the debug tool doesn't check correctly if the driver is installed in the system.
I'm not sure the uninstaller caused the issue, anyway if you want to manually remove the driver you must remove the /System/LibraryExtensions/DisplayLinkDriver.kext (you need to login in as root) and remove the following files: /Library/LaunchDeamons/com.displaylink.usblistener and /Library/LaunchAgents/com.displaylink.useragent.plist. In order to rebuild the kernel extension cache run the following command:
touch /System/Library/Extensions
and reboot the system.
