MyMemory Removal Guide

Do you have a lot of events on your agenda? If you do, you might be looking for a tool that alerts you whenever an event is coming up. MyMemory might be one of your choices, but you should not look at this program seriously. After doing a thorough analysis of this potentially unwanted program, we have found that it fails to alert about the events in case other windows are open. The reminder pops up in the background without any sound, and that might make you miss some of your events. Of course, we do not classify this PUP as a security threat, but you need to think carefully if you should install it onto your PC. If you have installed it already, we suggest you consider deleting MyMemory from your operating system. Keep in mind that there are plenty of great applications that can remind you about the upcoming events for free, and so you do not have to put up with software that does not work.

The first thing we need to discuss, of course, is the distribution of MyMemory because you would not need to deal with this potentially unwanted program unless it was installed onto your computer. Here’s when things get tricky. It is unlikely that you have researched and pursued the program on purpose. It is much more likely that this program was introduced to you via a software bundle as you were trying to install something else. As we have stated already, MyMemory is not a dangerous threat, and so we have nothing against it per se. What we are more worried about is the third-party software that might be packaged along with this PUP. In the worst case scenario, clandestine Trojans will be dropped onto your PC without your notice, and that could be the start of many problems. Since malware could be hidden, we advise using a trusted and legitimate malware scanner to inspect your operating system and help you find out if you need to delete any serious threats.

Our research has revealed that MyMemory is a clone of Note-up, another potentially unwanted program that we have reviewed a while back. Both of these programs might fail you because they display event notifications in the background. Of course, no one wants irritating, annoying pop-ups, but there is no reason to keep the PUP installed if it might fail to remind you of an event in time. This is the main reason to delete it from your operating system. Also, because this PUP is not represented in an official manner, we have no way of reviewing the privacy policies that support it, and that is an issue. How can you fully trust a program that you know little about? If you understand these concerns, you probably want to remove MyMemory from your operating system ASAP, and, luckily, that is very easy to do.

If you follow the guide below, you will have MyMemory removed in no time. Maybe you do not even need to follow the steps shown because you are familiar with the process of uninstalling unwanted apps from your Windows operating system already. Once you uninstall the PUP, we encourage scanning your operating system, not only to check which other threats might require removal but also to see if the PUP was erased successfully. Now, when it comes to third-party malware – if the scanner detects it – we suggest using an automated malware remover to erase it from your operating system. If you choose to perform manual removal, act quickly, and make sure that you approach every threat individually because every single one of them might be unique. As you know, anti-malware software can automatically erase malware and reinforce further protection of the system, which is why we strongly advise installing right away.
