LaunchBar Bundles – The Application Bundle

Drag & Drop leaves the associated files of LaunchBar application. Normally, it is thought that all the associated files of a application is saved in the one folder but it is not so. LaunchBar supported files & preference files are saved in other location than the LaunchBar Package folder. So you need to get all these files deleted manually.
