Console Wizard assesses suspected virus, malware and unwanted-software problems on the 13-inch MacBook Air A1369 and A1466. The standard service price is £49.99, with Bolton drop-off and UK-wide mail-in available.
Persistent pop-ups, unexpected browser behaviour and a Mac that runs poorly can be reasons to investigate. They do not prove an infection. We assess the reported problem before agreeing the work, rather than promising a complete security or performance cure from the symptoms alone.
MacBook Air Malware & Unwanted-Software Symptoms
Tell us what appears on screen, whether it happens in one browser or across the Mac and whether it followed a download or other change. Persistent advertising can be associated with adware or unwanted software. Some pop-ups imitate trusted warnings to persuade users to disclose information or install software.
Slow operation, crashes or unusual behaviour can also have other causes. Storage condition, limited resources or a separate software problem may require assessment. A popup warning alone is not confirmation that a virus is present.
Assessment Before Malware Removal
We review the reported behaviour and assess the Mac for unwanted software relevant to the fault. Browser-related changes and suspicious installed software may need attention as part of the investigation.
If the problem is caused by hardware or a different fault, we explain the findings and any separately chargeable work before proceeding. A storage device, motherboard or other hardware replacement is not included in this booking.
Virus, Malware & Adware Removal Scope
The service covers assessment and removal of identified malicious or unwanted software where feasible, with checks of the reported behaviour afterwards. The appropriate approach depends on the condition of the Mac and its installed system.
We do not guarantee that every possible threat can be detected, that every application is safe or that the Mac will remain free of infection in future. A paid antivirus licence, subscription, full internal hardware service or upgrade of every installed application is not included.
Account Security, Files & Further Work
Removing unwanted software from the computer does not establish whether an online account has been compromised or undo information already disclosed to another party. Tell us about any relevant symptoms without including account passwords in your repair notes.
Data preservation cannot be guaranteed. If system reinstallation or storage erasure is considered necessary, the scope and data requirements must be discussed before that work is authorised. Specialist data recovery, destination storage and paid software licences are separate from this malware-removal booking.
Malware-Removal Price & Unsuccessful Work
The standard service price is £49.99 before postage. Existing eligible account discounts are applied by the website.
If the attempted repair is unsuccessful, only £20 is retained and the remaining repair payment is refunded. A separately booked £20 diagnosis is credited against an agreed repair. We contact you before additional chargeable work is undertaken.
We check the reported symptoms following the agreed work. This service cannot guarantee future security or resolve an unrelated hardware problem. Explain recurring symptoms and previous repairs during assessment.
