Un Advanced Cleaner? Install It And

If you have incompletely removed MacKeeperfor example, by dragging the application to the Trash and immediately emptyingthen youll have to reinstall it and start over.

IMPORTANT: MacKeeper has what the developer calls an encryption feature.

In my tests, I didnt try to verify what this feature really does.

If you used it to encrypt any of your files, decrypt them before you uninstall, or (preferably) restore the files from backups made before they were encrypted.

As the developer is not trustworthy, you should assume that the decrypted files are corrupt unless proven otherwise.

In the Finder, select Go Applications from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-A.

Click the Uninstall MacKeeper button in the dialog that appears.

All the other functional components of the software will be deleted.

Let MacKeeper delete its other components before you empty the Trash.

Dont try to drag MacKeeper from the Dock or the Launchpad to the Trash.

C You may also have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware.

Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it.

If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
