Hello vourdiat,

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities! I understand that you would like to know how to remove Maftask from your MacBook Pro. I would be happy to help point you towards a resolution.

While the following resource is for help blocking pop-up ads, it provides some suggestions to help protect your MacBook Pro against adware or unwanted software:

Specifically, check out this section:

If you might have installed adware or other unwanted software on your Mac

If you see pop-ups on your Mac that just won’t go away, you might have inadvertently downloaded and installed adware (advertising-supported software) or other unwanted software. Certain third-party download sites might include programs that you don’t want with the software that you install.

If you think that you might have malware or adware on your Mac, update to the latest version of macOS. If your Mac is already running the latest version, restart it. macOS includes a built-in tool that removes known malware when you restart your Mac.

Check your Applications folder to see if you have any apps that you didn’t expect and uninstall them. If you continue to see advertising or other unwanted programs on your Mac, contact Apple.


If the issue still occurs after trying those steps, consider trying a third-party tool such as Malwarebytes for Mac — Mac Antivirus Replacement | Malwarebytes

Take care!
