Cannot uninstall on Mac

I recently migrated to a new machine with apple's Time Machine. Now, I can't upgrade or uninstall Teamviewer, so I am unable to use it to connect to anyone anymore. It just says the uninstaller is damaged and can't be used. Every time I try to upgrade or install a new version, it gives me this and I'm stuck on an old version! anyone know how to manually remove everything related to this app???

@Binaryman Usually, I would have recommended these two steps:

Download TeamViewer again from our website.
Install the newly downloaded copy "on top" of your existing installation that broke after the TimeMachine restore.

Since you wrote " Every time I try to upgrade or install a new version, it gives me this" I'm not sure if you already tried that?

Can you please tell me what exactly happens when you attempt to install a newly downloaded copy? I would be very surprised if you are getting an error about the uninstaller being damaged in that case – are you perhaps getting a different error?

As I stated in my initial post, this doesn't help at all. but thanks for not helping at all.
