Uninstall MyPC Backup

MyPC Backup is a potentially unwanted program that, in most cases, will stealthily install itself onto a system without any user prompt. It will display ads, including pop-up windows. Refer to the following how-to steps to manually uninstall MyPC Backup from your computer.

Steps

  1. Make yourself the system Administrator.
  2. Log on to your MyPC Backup account, and save or download your personal stuff. Then, exit your account.
  3. Use Windows Task Manager to terminate the above "MyPC Backup.exe" process that stays active in the background. Do this to smooth the installation process.
  4. Get the unwanted MyPC Backup uninstalled via one of the three methods below:
    • Method One: Click Start, go to All Programs, enter the "MyPC Backup" folder, and run "Uninstall" in it.
    • Method Two: Press Windows key on your keyboard, choose "Control Panel", select "Add/Remove" or "Programs & Features" entry? locate the MyPC Backup. Then, launch the "Uninstall/Change" option or hit your "Enter" key if you're using a Windows 8/ Windows 7/ Vista computer. Please note that, to fully uninstall MyPC Backup, you will need to get rid of the potentially unused "Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable - x64 9.0.30729.17" later.
    • Method Three: Go to MyPC Backup's original installation file folder, and run the default uninstaller "uninst" app (84 KB).
  5. Apply Yes to the User Account Control alert if you see it.
  6. Process the regular uninstallation process. Choose the "No Thanks" option on right pane of the Uninstall wizard above.
  7. Wait while the "uninst" application helps perform the uninstall silently. Moreover, you may have noticed that your desktop becomes blank temporarily during the progress.
  8. Save your work, then restart your PC.



Tips

  • Consider downloading an anti-malware program. These programs can scan your computer for viruses that your anti-virus may miss.
  • If the instructions outlined above did not meet your expectations, try performing a force uninstall using a professional uninstall tool.
  • If the target is not listed, try reinstalling via the original installer file.
