• Xcode opens with 'ICloudSetupView.strings' at startup after a full stop. Xcode is disabled as a startup item, but there is a new startup item called "ICloudSetupView.strings" that has a "sort" of "Strings File". Is this a virus or spyware?

  MacBook Pro	(15-inch, mid 2010)
  OPERATING SYSTEM	OS X El Capitan (Version 10.11.2)
  Processor	Intel Core i7 2.66 GHz
  Memory	8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
  Startup disk	Macintosh HD
  Graphics	Intel HD Graphics 288 MB

  The past several times I completely stopped my MacBook Pro and booted back up Xcode is the first thing to open, and it opens a window, I've never seen before called 'ICloudSetupView.strings '.

  I went to check if Xcode is checked as a startup item (I usually put off because I do not often use XCode) and Xcode is not even on my list of items that opens automatically when I boot.

  HOWEVER, there is a new startup item called "ICloudSetupView.strings" that has a "sort" of "Strings File".

  I traced the file in its location and found several others with the timestamp date same creation and now I'm worried.

  The path to the file is:

  System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/FinderKit.Framework/versions/A/Resources/SK. LP roj/ICloudSetupView.strings

  
  

  The file has only the following 2 lines of code (technically 1 with overflow) that you can see in the image:

  bplist00 "_uHD " Driveo-7F-8GX.title_H4f-Te-Tzu.title\iCloud

  3 @

  
  

  A screenshot of the Xcode file that opens and my preferences of start programme is attached.

  I'm quite worried about it, especially because it IS NOT defined as part of open automatically but it is.

  I searched online and found no something like this.

  Anyone know what it is?

  Or what the code does?

  Is this a virus or spyware?

  

  It is not spyware. Simply remove it from your login items.

  Hello

  In the past, I used to get these warnings of viruses, but I would ignore them since they looked much more informal, and since I had heard the warnings that require you to install MacKeeper are scam. However, this one popped up today and I was worried because it looks like the official site Apple and says that my system is seriously damaged. This warning is real and should install the MacKeeper or any other program for my Mac virus?

  

  Fake.

  Do not install MacKeeper, it's a scam. They tell you there are viruses so you will have to pay for the program. Then the program says that it removed the virus (that were never there) in order to feel safe.

  Hello

  My computer is a Dell Dimension E521 with a 64-bit AMD Athlon processor.

  My PC is running Windows XP Home Edition.

  I restarted my computer and I found myself with a blue screen with an error message that looks like this:

  There is a problem

  How can I fix it?

  I tried following instructions on screen ther, but as I can not even access windows Safe Mode or one of the other options avaialable on the previous black screen I don't know what to do...

  I asked a speaker to the work that might be able to help and I followed her instructions to restart the system from a cd, but all, I found myself with a blue screen which revealed the following:

  The screen said something like this:

  When he asked me if I wanted to I wanted to repair a current installation of Windows XP or install a new do you think I should have pressed R to repair?

  I was using a professional Windows XP disk and not Windows XP Home Edition, do you think this could be the problem?

  Thank you bro

  Respect

  Try to repair first.

  Put the disc in and go ahead and use the chkdsk command.

  You have no more options.

  You can't run windows, then you must fix it.

  Equip the drive.

  When the screen

  Press r

  type in

  Chkdsk /f

  Press ENTER.

  and wait.

  If this does not work, I suggest a restoration of the system, or the start of the last known configuration.

  If these two do not work, you will need to reinstall windows.

• My computer guard direct me to the Windows Startup Repair loop. Is this a virus? If this is not the case, what should I do?

  OK, here's a little history:
  When was surfing the Internet (using Mozilla Firefox), he froze and said that he "did not." Then I left the computer alone for a good 15 minutes, but to realize that nothing happened. From there, I decided to disconnect the computer to see if I can re - open Firefox. But when I tried to connect it back, the computer take me on the desk. It was stuck at the screen that says 'Welcome' (the form that appears after clicking on your user name) in the end, I turned off the computer by holding the power button, because there was nothing I could do. When I turned on the computer a few minutes later, it was time that I met a huge problem.

  The problem:
  When I turned it back on, a black screen appears that gives you the ability to boot your system with a repair on your computer, or start normally. I chose "start normally. After that, it took me a blue screen with a window that says "Startup Repair". He began to scan the computer saying «attempted repairs...» "When I saw this, I turned immediately shut down the computer, thinking it was some sort of virus that pretends to fix the computer. Nevertheless, I decided to turn it on for the second time. Of course, it's the same thing. But this time, I allow the scanning process to complete. When it was over, he said that the system could not be repaired and advised me to contact Microsoft, with my "contact information." I took this as a red flag, and click Cancel. I suspected it was an attempt to identity theft. (Though, I could be wrong, of course.)

  Honestly, I don't know if if there is indeed something wrong with the computer or if it's a virus.

  I tried to find out by going online and looking for solutions. From there, I tried a method where you press F8 several times until the Advanced Boot Options go up and selected "Last known Configuration" that did not work. I also heard on the "chkdsk" method, but I don't know how to do and there is no guarantee this will work.

  After that, I did more research and realized there were several ways to solve this problem. But when I went through the tutorials, the steps have been very confusing to me. I felt like most of these tutorials aimed computer technicians or people who knew in fixing computers. The steps were so confused until I found myself referring more questions than real answers!

  So now I'm reaching out to help, and I really need! It would be greatly appreciated! I really don't want to format all my data.

  Please keep in mind that I am a lover of computers operating. The two programs I normally use are Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Word. So please don't be assuming that I know my way in and out of a computer. I'm no where near, in every sense of the term, an 'Expert '. If you can, I would like a simple, easy to follow, simple tutorial, step by step, which is not turned to professional users. Still, I am not very competent in operating computers.
