How does MASetupCleaner.exe work?

If you downloaded Samsung application from its official website, you should not have any issues. However, if you acquired it from a third party software hosting webpage, you most likely also installed additional unwanted programs onto your computer. These applications may be ad-supported. If so, you will notice advertisements on all sites that you visit, even on those that have nothing to do with online shopping. You should know that not all of these commercials are safe, so it would be best to stay away from them. Moreover, potentially unwanted programs usually use up a lot of system resources thus slowing it down. Therefore, you should terminate MASetupCleaner.exe.

If you have never dealt with Samsung Kies before, meaning that this application was never on your computer at all, you should definitely be more concerned. Cyber criminals often name their malicious files using the names of legitimate files, which helps them stay hidden in the system longer. If you think that this may be true for your situation, you should delete MASetupCleaner.exe from your computer as soon as you can.
