Deleting Installer Files on Mac

Thanks.

First, ensure you have a reliable backup of your Mac, in case something should go wrong with continued troubleshooting. To learn how to do that please read Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support. A backup is a fundamental prerequisite, regardless of your preferred method to uninstall adware, and would apply even if your Mac were running perfectly well.

This step is optional but will preclude any related inability to use your Mac: Restart in "Safe Mode", and log in: Try safe mode if your Mac doesn't finish starting up - Apple Support. Starting in Safe Mode takes longer than usual so let it finish.

In the first screenshot (/Library/LaunchDaemons) select the files containing the names "InstallMac", "Manroling", and "Smokyashan". Leave the others alone. Drag that selection of files to the Trash. You will be asked to authenticate. Confirm they are no longer present in that folder.

Next: open Safari and select the Safari menu > Preferences... > Extensions. If you see any Extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone. No Safari Extensions are required for normal operation. Then, select the General pane and review your Homepage selection. Repeat those equivalent actions for any other browser you may use.

You can then restart your Mac and use it normally.

Next: if you want to eradicate all remaining adware remnants post a screenshot of the following folder, in the same manner as you did earlier:

~/Library/Application Support

It is normal for that folder to contain many items, but anything associated with the above adware will bear identical names ("manroling" etc). They can be removed if you wish, but don't remove anything if you are uncertain.

There may also be adware-associated programs in your Mac's Applications folder. Anything unwanted should be obvious to you, but again don't remove anything if you are uncertain.

You inadvertently installed adware. You do not need to download or install anything to fix it.

Navigate to the following folder, and post its contents in a screenshot.

~/Library/LaunchAgents

To open that folder, copy the entire line above and paste it in the Finder's Go menu > Go to Folder... field. It should look like this:

Take a screenshot showing all that folder's contents, and post it in a reply. To take a screenshot read the Appendix in the following User Tip: Writing an effective Apple Support Communities question. There will be additional instructions to follow.

For a description of how this may have occurred, how to avoid it in the future, and for Apple's recommended actions read How to install adware.

Review your Gatekeeper settings: OS X : About Gatekeeper - Apple Support. Gatekeeper is designed to help prevent you from inadvertently installing garbage software.

The files you need to drag to the Trash are in your first screenshot:

They are in the ~/Library/LaunchAgents folder. Drag them to the Trash and leave the others alone.

The files you need to delete are locked, so you will be asked to confirm their deletion.

Then, open Safari again and make sure the Extensions you don't want are still gone.

To open that folder, copy and paste it in the Finder's Go menu > Go to Folder... field. It should look like this:

I am having the same issue. Tried all of the above and still have those installer files.

Here is my screen shot of the launch agents folder. Thank you.

here is the screenshot of launchdaemons folder. Thank you.

Try starting in Safe Mode (depress and hold Shift key when booting)

In the same manner as the above, open the following folder:

/Library/LaunchDaemons

Once again ensure all its files and their names are readable, take a screenshot, and post it.

Thanks. Repeat the above with one more folder please:

/Library/LaunchAgents
