Mac disables "Setapp CleanMyMac-setapp.HealthMonitor" launchd services

disable-cleanmymac.md

sudo vim /private/var/db/launchd.db/com.apple.launchd/overrides.plist

Add the following code,as entries like:

<key>com.macpaw.CleanMyMac-setapp.HealthMonitor</key>
<dict>
<key>Disabled</key>
<true/>
</dict>

I use Terminal a lot, so I added this to my ~/.profile (which is loaded on every Terminal window):

if [ -f "/Applications/CleanMyMac X.app/Contents/Library/LoginItems/CleanMyMac X Menu.app/Contents/Library/LoginItems/CleanMyMac X HealthMonitor.app/Contents/MacOS/CleanMyMac X HealthMonitor" ]; then
  mv -v "/Applications/CleanMyMac X.app/Contents/Library/LoginItems/CleanMyMac X Menu.app/Contents/Library/LoginItems/CleanMyMac X HealthMonitor.app/Contents/MacOS/CleanMyMac X HealthMonitor" "/Applications/CleanMyMac X.app/Contents/Library/LoginItems/CleanMyMac X Menu.app/Contents/Library/LoginItems/CleanMyMac X HealthMonitor.app/Contents/MacOS/CleanMyMac X HealthMonitor.old"
fi

Hi! Your approach is the only method that would work, for my version at least (4.6.14)
But what I did instead was putting the binary into a zip, which I find less invasive and redundant than editing .profile to test everytime if the file still exists.
Here's the cmdline if you fancy using it once and forever (as long as background protection setting is disabled):
cd /Applications/CleanMyMac\ X.app/Contents/Library/LoginItems/CleanMyMac\ X\ Menu.app/Contents/Library/LoginItems/CleanMyMac\ X\ HealthMonitor.app/Contents/MacOS/; zip -m disabled.zip

Thanx for the help!!

No problem. Yea, the reason I have it in my ~/.profile is that I found that the file comes back every time that CleanMyMac updates.

Perfect, thanks for sharing.

This works for me! Removing the entire folder of CleanMyMac X HealthMonitor.app would cause problems, but removing the executable file seems great.

After reading some documents, I found the best practice:

The detailed service-target format is given in the document https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/16206:

service-target = domain-target/service-name
domain-target = gui/$UID or user/$UID
service-name can be obtained by executing the launchctl list | grep macpaw command

In the end just need to disable them via launchctl disable

# Note: The `service-name` of cleanmymac installed by setapp may be different
launchctl disable gui/$UID/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac4.HealthMonitor
launchctl disable user/$UID/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac4.HealthMonitor
launchctl disable gui/$UID/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac4.Agent
launchctl disable user/$UID/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac4.Agent

After a test restart, this damn process finally disappeared. 😁😁😁
