Need advise how to remove a 'stubborn' icon from main menu. Normally the drag and drop works for removing icons but not for this though I uninstalled this application completely. When I try to drag and drop it with control key, to desktop or recycle bin, nothing happens and it moves back to menu bar. It is third icon from left in attached picture. I have latest 10.14 version on my MacBook Pro 2017 version
Thanks, I know its Malwarebytes and that's where the problem is. As per the link given, I had already uninstalled it and is no more on my Mac now but the icon still shows and can't be drag-dropped
I may need to do something at MacOS level rather than Malwarebytes because as mentioned above, it doesn't exist on my computer now
Thanks again but this tool did not find anything and is asking for money to reveal solution of a 32 bit install program.
I am still checking on other discussions in this support community to find something similar but no solution to this problem yet.
Thanks for your prompt responses. It is solved now
As I had already uninstalled Malwarebytes program, there was no option to uninstall it again and somehow that M icon was left in menu bar. I opened a ticket for MB support and they sent a downloadable uninstalled, which when run, removed the icon.
Thanks again
Regards
If you post the report we can help locate the files. Or you can ask Malwarebytes support as well.
That's the Malwarebytes icon which means you didn't completely uninstall it.
Okay. Part of Malwarebytes is still there otherwise the icon would not be there. Try running an EtreCheck report and it may reveal where the remnants are. http://etrecheck.com/
You're welcome.
