getting rid of YOPmail
This morning YOPmail showed up on my windows 10 foxfire as a pinned tab. It claims to be an extension (chrome). Nowhere does anyone say it is malicious...but I want it gone and nowhere is there instructions on how to remove it...I have contacted the dev. we'll see...
It is my business computer and I don't like software, apps, code, extensions or add-ons that i cant get rid of.
Any help would be appreciated.

I appreciate your help.
I did that already...Even contacted some of the people that reviewed it over the years as well as one of the well known magazine / download sites and asked them why they promoted and offered a hack; and that they might want to offer info on uninstalling...
If it is an installed extension then see:
Thank you...did that as well...searched HD...nothing...

You may have ad/mal-ware.

Run most or all of the listed free to use malware scanners. Each works differently. If one program misses something, another may pick it up.
Fred,
I saw those earlier, but those are fixes for youmail...sounds like that's a subscription/account system. YOPmail has no subscriptions, no settings wheel.
I ran search and destroy this am. I'll try malware later.
thanks everyone
me too. Found out what it was but not how to remove it...
