While the PC App Store is legitimate software, it may occasionally be packaged with harmful programs like adware or browser hijackers. If it unexpectedly appears on your computer, there's a strong possibility it could be unintentionally linked to a virus. If you're receiving unwanted McAfee pop-ups, it could be due to nefarious affiliate creators using the PC App Store application to spread infections like fake McAfee pop-ups. Although McAfee & PC App Store is not directly involved in these scams, they are not actively restricting their affiliates/clients from using deceptive methods to promote McAfee software. Often, the PC App Store is installed on your PC silently or through fraudulent means, making it difficult to remove.
1) Manual Removal: *Easy*
2) Removed successfully, but it's still showing in the list of installed programs in the Control Panel?
*Ans* : It is normal. It's just remnants of the malware, not actually present. This uninstalling issue might be occurring because either you're not logged in as an administrator or the admin rights to the specific program files are not granted for the logged user account.
