'Advanced Mac Clean-up'

Any suggestions as to how to remove this annoying program from my MacBook? I've tried a few things, but they haven't worked yet.

In order to 'unsubscribe' according to their support info you need to launch the program and give them your Mac password - that ain't gonna happen.

I'm an old coot flying blind.

MacBook Air 13", macOS 10.12

how do I remove gotomeeting from my Mac? The gotomeeting website is not helpful at all. I deleted the app because I was getting numerous popups when starting my Mac, latest 13.1 Ventura. It didn't stop the popups. I never had this before Ventura and cannot say for certain that is the cause but state this for background. I then reinstalled the app thinking it there may be an uninstaller that would delete hidden files but there isn't. I tried to get support at their website but you need an account for support. I don't have an account. There is information on how to remove it from a PC, but I couldn't find anything for a Mac.

How to get rid of anti-malware program I fell for this anti-malware program, and now I've received a notice that it will automatically renew if I don't do something. However, I'm finding it hard to learn how to cancel it or how to get rid of it from my Mac (HighSierra 10.13.6). I'm wondering, after reading John Galt's article, if some of the instability I'm experiencing might be due to Komros. Hoping for a reply before Aug. 8!! kanukid [Re-Titled by Moderator]
