Mac Auto Fixer is on my Launchpad somehow. If I go to my activity monitor to try to delete it, it’s not listed. Any suggestions?
You can read my blog to remove it manually: Remove Mac Auto Fixer from Mac OS X - SecureMacOS

It shows up as maftask on Activity Manager. I am also having no luck trying to get it off my computer. Does anyone have any info?
It is a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program)
