Mac os Toolbar stuck on "finder"

I agree with Sean Dale1...

Uninstall CleanMyMac per their directions then run etrecheck again to see what chaff it left.

On CMM…

Try removing Clean My Mac that should help. If you search these forums you'll find that people don't recommend putting Apps like that on Macs, far from it. If your Mac is that slow you should get the hard drive tested.

Yep, I made that with a app on settap

You come here looking for advise...

CleanMyMac has excellent marketing and for taking your money—

It is garbage and frequently causes nothing but added issues on the macOS.

There are otherways for better house keeping then using this garbage application. These forums are littered with 100's of user like yourself that were dooped into thinking it was "safe."

The resolve is use their 'official uninstaller' to remove all remanents of the application...

There is no such thing as a universal panacea for a Mac but there are plenty of software manufacturers with good marketing strategies who make extravagant claims about the benefits that their software can make on the smooth running of your Mac. Their marketing and advertising campaigns are very successful at snaring the unwary because they promise all sorts of ways to clear up all your problems and speed up your machine quickly and easily and relieve you of potential stress. After all who doesn't want a cleaner faster machine without the clutter of obsolete files, and that's the hook. If it was that easy to make the whole system run faster you can be sure that Apple would have done it and advertised the fact to the world at large thereby enhancing their reputation.

I suggest you have a trawl through some of the posts on the communities and you will find loads of people asking how to get rid of numerous 'wonder' Apps. Things that are generally known as PUPs or PUAs (Potentially Unwanted Programs/Applications)

Oh, thanks, I wasn't asking why do so many people have trouble with it, I was actually replying t the "legit" & macpaw's other apps... CMM has been a big pain for many, & there Uninstaller can't seem to uninstall all the parts it installs. :)

My bad. I misunderstood your question. Shouldn't have done really as you're obviously the sort of person who wouldn't think of installing software like that in the first place. I don't trust their uninstaller myself I root out the bits manually, I've got a couple of notes in Evernote with the details of a manual uninstall for a couple of the versions and I referent to them when necessary.

Were they parts of CMM? If you're not sure take a screenshot of the quarantine folder and post it here. If you're not sure how the easiest way to take a tight screenshot of the window is to press Command (⌘) + Shift + 4 → Press the Spacebar (The window that will be screenshotted will turn blue) → Press the mouse/trackpad button. The screenshots should appear on your Desktop.

Have you tried to relaunch the Desktop by pressing Command + All + Esc?
