f.lux is a useful tool that allows you to set the temperature of your monitor's display manually or automatically. This way, you can use warmer colors during the dark hours of the day, therefore reducing eye strain. Some users find f.lux to be incredibly useful, while others do not find a major difference between having it enabled or not. If you belong to the second category and you want to uninstall f.lux, then these brief instructions should be of help:

Uninstalling f.lux on Windows

Quit f.lux through the taskbar notifications area, and then open the 'Start Menu.' Look for 'Apps' and then go to the 'Apps & Features' section. Select f.lux and press 'Uninstall' to start the removal wizard.

Uninstalling f.lux on macOS

Quit f.lux, and head to the Finder -> Applications section. Right-click f.lux's icon, and select 'Move to Trash.' If the color temperature settings applied by f.lux persist, then head to System Preferences -> Displays -> Color. Delete the 'f.lux profile' and restart the system.
