Query/Problem about my latest Adobe update

[margarete 10]

I was updating Adobe. And Mobogenie has somehow installed itself. I didn't want to install any additional software progs since I know so little about them (Technodense). I'm wary.

 

I managed to decline a Bubble thing and Yuc thing, thankfully. And a Backup thing.

 

Is it safe, folks? - And if it's not safe, how do I safely get rid of it please?

 

Thanks for any help.

It should be safe. Its just for helping your pc communicate with android phones.

Uninstall it if you dont want it. Just google uninstall software then either windows 7 or 8 depending which version you have. It should throw up plenty of guides with instructions.

 

If its windows 7 then check the prog hasnt got an uninstall feature anyway from the start menu, slect the prog and it might show up an uninstall program .

Thanks very much, 999tigger. - I don't even have an android phone so I'd better have a go at uninstalling it.

 

Thanks again.

Would probably be worth running ADWcleaner too.

Thank you, megalithic.

Sounds very much like you've used a download site (eg. CNet) that uses a download wrapper to bundle additional software.

Thanks, waddler8. I had had a message from Adobe which was what had promted me to download the update, but when I initiated the download the unnecessary accompanying software had appeared with it.

 

I've managed to uninstall the software I didn't need.

 

So my query/problem is sorted. Many thanks, forummers, for your kind help.
