Removing existing coloring filter for Wireshark 2.4.0 for Mac OSX

Hi all,

I'm trying to remove existing coloring rule from Wireshark 2.4.0 for Mac
OSX in order to import a new coloring filter file.
My Macbook Pro is running 10.11.6, El Capitan.
Wireshark remember its preexisting coloring filter on fresh install even
after I removed Wireshark app from /Application, and followed the uninstall
instructions described in ReadMe.rtf.
"colorfilter" must be the filename though it did not help to remove the
file to force Wiresahrk forget the old coloring rule.

I need to import a new coloring filter which is compatible for 2.4.0 while
the old preexisting rule is not.
When I tried to remove all lines from GUI then clicked OK, I see "Wireshark
doesn't recognize one or more of your colouring rules. They have been
disabled." error even though there is no rule defined...

What should I do to import the new rule file and remove old unsupported
syntax rule?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Hide
