Dear all, A relative of mine has a 2015 Macbook with Yosemite and, somehow, Weknow malware is now installed. I managed to remove it from Safari but not from Chrome. When you start Chrome, the page that appears is the one I chose in Settings, but when you open a new tab, the Weknow search page appears. I've tried to follow the manual uninstall instructions of weknow.ac but when I reach this point Delete Profiles: 1. Open System Preferences 2. Go to Profiles 3. In the window that opens, choose the AdminPrefs and click the minus button on the bottom left – then click Remove - click OK.

The problem is that I don't have any profile icon in System Preferences (I'm logged in as administrator). I've scanned and cleaned the Macbook using Malwarebytes, and it removed quite a few files with suspicious names such as myshopcoupon, but the new tab in Chrome still shows the search page from Weknow. I've run out of ideas. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Apple Footer.
