IRRITATING SNAPFISH POPUP
self ^ | May 25, 2016 | knarf

Posted on 05/25/2016 9:20:32 AM PDT by knarf

About six months ago I downloaded SNAPFISH thinking it was something I wanted
I soon learned it was not and went into my programs, uninstalled and everything was OK until today

I am getting a constant annoying popup saying, "We are unable to authenticate your acct." etc
I've been everywhere I know and can't find this annoyance to remove it

help

W7 w/chrome

Yes ... I JUST found a shortcut in my "startup" under "all programs"

I deleted it, but it is a shortcut and did not remove the popup

There is nothing in my 'settings' or 'extensions'

Found the following using google for a person with an HP computer. Seems the problem is in the startup menu:

Disable snapfish service from the MS system configuration. Please perform the steps with the help of following link.

Under service and startup tab please uncheck service related to snapfish. LINK

Hope it helsp, seemed to help the other person.

You may need to restart after deleting it form your startup.

next time you see the pop-up, start into your TASK MANAGER and see what is running

Go to the location of the app

delete it

It may not let you delete it, if it is running... so

EVERY FREEPER should have these three things:
1)Avast antivirus
2)MalwareBytes
3) CCLeaner

All of them have a free home version.

Run them all and do a scan/clean

Then run CCLeaner and see if you can find the application or service that is running at startup and delete it.
(it may not have the name ‘snapfish’ that’s how these arseholes keep you from completely deleting their crapware easily)

A program I love and will not do without is IObit Uninstaller. It will use he programs default uninstaller but then after that it will scrub the registry for all related leftover registry entries as well as any leftover files and folders.

It’s awesome, in fact all their software is.

I used to use that a lot and a geek said I should stop ... that the provided uninstallers were sufficient ....but I DID like to be part of determining the erasure

I’m in software QA and I use it all the time. Not sure what their complain was. There are virtually no programs that uninstall cleanly.
