What is MyPrintScreen?

The Malwarebytes research team has determined that MyPrintScreen is a potentially unwanted program that behaves like a trojan.
It downloads other threats to the affected system.

How do I know if my computer is affected by MyPrintScreen?

You may see this warning during install:

How do I remove MyPrintScreen?

Our program Malwarebytes can detect and remove this potentially unwanted program.

  • Please download Malwarebytes for Windows to your desktop.
  • Double-click MBSetup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
  • When your Malwarebytes for Windows installation completes, the program opens to the Welcome to Malwarebytes screen.
  • Click on the Get started button.
  • Click Scan to start a Threat Scan.
  • When the scan is finished click Quarantine to remove the found threats.
  • Reboot the system if prompted to complete the removal process.

Is there anything else I need to do to get rid of MyPrintScreen?

  • You can uninstall MyPrintScreen after the reboot if you no longer wish to use it.

How would the full version of Malwarebytes help protect me?

We hope our application and this guide have helped you eradicate this potentially unwanted program.

As you can see below the full version of Malwarebytes would have protected you against the MyPrintScreen PUP. It would have blocked the installer before it became too late.
