How to remove '* will damage your computer. You should move it to the Trash.' from Mac computersIf your Mac fails to boot properly and you find yourself staring at a blank screen. A huge chunk of the fun that you'll find on the web is the ability to download images and other files to your MacBook. If you've visited a site that offers files for downloading, typically you just click the Download button or the download file link, and Safari takes care of the rest.
What is '* will damage your computer. You should move it to the Trash.'?'* will damage your computer. You should move it to the Trash.' is a message that can appear within a pop-up window on MacOS Catalina operating systems. In other cases, these pop-ups contain a message stating, '* will damage your computer. You should move it to the Bin.'. In any case, they are displayed when adware, browser hijackers, or unwanted applications are present on the system. People generally see these pop-ups when unwanted apps were installed prior to updating their operating systems to Catalina.
Apps that cause '* will damage your computer. You should move it to the Trash.' and similar pop-ups are installed through the set-ups of unwanted apps. These are usually promoted through untrustworthy, deceptive web pages. Some examples of these unwanted apps include Mac Cleanup Pro, Smart Mac Booster, and Advanced Mac Cleaner. People who install them are often tricked into installing other unwanted apps, which also cause the aforementioned pop-ups. In many cases, the set-ups of unwanted apps are used to distribute adware, browser hijackers, and other unwanted software. Therefore, apps that display pop-ups such as '* will damage your computer. You should move it to the Trash.' might serve ads, gather various information, and so on. We advise you to remove all apps of this type installed on computers/systems or browsers immediately. There is a high probability that there will be some remnants (unwanted files) even if you remove these apps manually. Therefore, perform a full system scan and delete any detected files using a reputable anti-virus/anti-spyware suite (e.g., Combo Cleaner).

Examples of apps that are mentioned in the pop-ups are APMHelper, FocusReportingService, HIPRADE, Helperamc, Helpermcp, MapsAndDirections-1668307, ProntoApp, Smbstrhlpr, Source.app, WebSocketServerApp, hlpradc, maftask, and spchlpr. If any of these apps are installed on MacOS Catalina, remove them with reputable antivirus software such as Combo Cleaner immediately. Instructions are provided below.
How did potentially unwanted applications install on my computer?In some cases, potentially unwanted apps can be downloaded from their individual web pages, however, most people download and install them through intrusive ads that they have intentionally or unintentionally clicked, or when software developers use a deceptive marketing method called 'bundling'. Developers use this method to trick people into unwanted downloads/installations. I.e., they include unwanted apps in download or installations set-ups of other software and hide related information in 'Custom', 'Advanced', and other similar settings. People who leave the settings unchecked and unchanged often agree by default with additional download/installation of unwanted apps.
How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applicationsDo not to use third party downloader/installer tools, Peer-to-Peer networks such as torrent clients, eMule, unofficial websites, or other similar download sources. The safest way to download programs and files is to use official and trustworthy websites/sources and direct download links. Check all settings available in any download/installation setup and dismiss offers to download/install additionally-included apps. It is not safe to click ads that are displayed on dubious web pages (relating to gambling, pornography, adult dating, and so on). To prevent the browser from opening untrustworthy sites or showing ads, uninstall all unwanted extensions, plug-ins, and add-ons that are installed, and also apply this to programs of this type installed on the operating system. If your computer is already infected with PUAs, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for macOS to automatically eliminate them.
Examples of messages displayed in these pop-up windows:
Example 1:
'app_name' will damage your computer.
You should move it to the Trash.
This file was downloaded on an unknown date.
Report malware to Apple to protect other users
Example 2:
'app_name' will damage your computer.
You should move it to the Bin.
This file was downloaded on an unknown date.
Report malware to Apple to protect other users
Examples of pop-ups displayed when these rogue apps are present:
IMPORTANT NOTE! Most of these rogue applications are hidden deep in the system and do not appear in any list of installed software. Therefore, the removal process might be complicated. Taking the aforementioned Smbstrhlpr app as an example:
The main list of files that are associated with Smbstrhlpr, which should be removed from the operating system, includes:
~/Library/Application Support/smbstr/smbstrhlpr
~/Library/Application Support/smbstr/smbstruninstall
~/Library/Application Support/smbstr/com.smbstrhlpr.smbstrhlpr.plist
~/Library/Application Support/smbstr/com.smbstruninstall.smbstruninstall.plist
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.smbstrhlpr.smbstrhlpr.plist
Simply deleting these files will not work, since deleting this application without firstly terminating its associated process is impossible. The problem is that the process is automatically re-started immediately it is terminated. Therefore, to remove this application, you must perform the following steps:
1) Navigate to the '~/Library/Application Support/smbstr/' directory, right-click on the 'smbstrhlpr' application, and select 'Show Package Contents':
2) Navigate to the 'Contents/MacOS' directory and delete the 'smbstrhlpr' application:
3) Once the previous steps are performed, the process associated with the Smbstrhlpr application will no longer be automatically re-started and you will be able to easily terminate it and remove the remaining application files:
Note that Smbstrhlpr is only one of many examples - files of other apps will be stored in different locations. Yet it is almost certain that they will be stored somewhere in the '~/Library/Application Support/' directory. For instance, Helperamc's files are stored in '~/Library/Application Support/amc/', Helpermcp's files are stored in '~/Library/Application Support/mcp/', and so forth. Therefore, users who encounter these pop-ups should closely study the entire '~/Library/Application Support/' directory and search for sub-directories with dubious names. If found, perform the aforementioned steps (right-click the executable and select 'Show Package Contents', navigate to the 'Contents/MacOS' directory, and delete the executable within, etc.) Additionally, we strongly advise you to scan the system with a reputable anti-virus/anti-spyware suite (especially if you have not found any suspect files) such as Combo Cleaner and eliminate all detected threats. In doing so, you will ensure that the system is clean and no longer contains files that might cause damage.
