Just use our First Aid Tool for removal of the app and license:

You can also simply remove the licence from within the GC prefs : General > More Misc : License -> Remove
If you want to transfer the GC prefs from the old Mac to the new Mac. Export them from menu GraphicConverter > Backup > Export Preferences on a USB key, then reimport them from the USB key on the new Mac using GraphicConverter > Backup > Import Preferences.

Note that using the GraphicConverter First Aid tool is more if you want to sell the Mac or if you have a problem with the preferences as this will definitively erase the prefs and all the related GC files.
