Junkware Removal Tool for Mac?

[8149]

Is there a Junkware Removal Tool for Mac or some thing similar?  My Mac got infected by Malware about a week ago and I downloaded Malewarebytes Anti-Malware For Mac, it worked Great! Thank you!  Long before I got this malware infection I have noticed :  under All My Files, in the Developer section, an ever growing list of about 200 items, what I assume is useless junk. Ill post a couple of them here to illustrate:   01VrGdvfEDL.js JavaScript script    1895.html  HTML document       conversionPixel(1).php   Plain Text Document     Do I just leave this alone?  I posted a similar question on Apple communities forum a few weeks ago and got no responses, maybe because I also asked if News Wire is malware and should I delete it, you don't need to address that.  Im a beginner to intermediate computer user with Mac and windows XP, I now just have a Mac.    Thanks!

Hi 8149,

Welcome to the forums!

There is not a Junkware Removal Tool for Mac. Those files indeed look like junk. You may want to give CCleaner for Mac a try, it may remove them for you.

Best regards

Hi Thisisu,

Thanks for the info and having this forum!  I have been looking into this and other computer problems Im having and decided to make the upgrade to Mac OS Sierra.  I have OS X version 10.9.5 and resist upgrades because it is more work for me, things get deleted or rearranged where I can't find them ect...  I think the upgrade will remove the junk files, if not I will try CCleaner for Mac.  

Best regards
