Q: Something Odd in Activity Monitor? - Issue with battery

I had posted in the past about when I put my Macbook to sleep closing lid there has been 10-12% drop in battery in about 12 hours...thought that was odd.

 

Then yesterday, it was 2% in same period.  So figured must be something to do with indexing being it is so new (1 week old today)

 

But then today, same thing...10% loss in 9 hours.

 

So I ran activity monitor and noticed something odd  Kernel_task said it was running for almost 24 hours and was doing what appears to be, waking the machine. (20 idle wakeups)

 

I did install Fantastical yesterday so I am not sure if that has anything to do with it at all.

 

I have attached a pic (screenshot was too big to upload I guess) - Chrome was just turned on just now for me so wasn't running overnight...Of course, I used Mac in 2012, went away, and came back after my SurfaceBook was a total disaster and swore off MS forever so I am still getting back into the swing of things.

 

Thanks for the help

    Ok..before I go through that entire deal, I downloaded CleanMyMac3, and then used it to remove both CleanMyMac2 and CleanMyMac3...


    Here is the final report after doing that...you seem to know what to look for...is it still there?

    Now you have bits of both of them on your Mac

    It appears you are going to have to go the reformat and reinstall route to get rid of that crap.

    You are welcome.

     

    Now you know why we recommend that software should be avoided.
