Y2Go is known to be a Potentially Unwanted Application (PUP) that may display unwanted banners and pop-up advertisements carrying various discount coupons, offers, and deals when PC users are browsing online shopping websites or any other websites. Y2Go may install itself in Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrome without the computer user's knowledge. Y2Go.exe is the Y2Go's predominant executable file, and it gets hold of around 2.10 MB (2205168 bytes) on your disk. Y2Go may be spread and invade your computer through bundled free programs that can be downloaded from the Internet.

When a computer user installs free software, it might include additional toolbars, browser extensions, plug-ins or add-ons embedded into the installation wizard. These additional applications, in this case, Y2Go, might be marked as optional tools, but if the check box that offers to include extra applications isn't unchecked by the computer users, they may end up with undesired system modifications. Y2Go may keep track of the PC user's surfing habits and forward gathered data to third-parties for the purpose of targeted marketing. As its classification makes clear, PUPs should be removed from an affected computer. If Y2GO is running on your machine and you want to erase it, the full command line for getting rid of Y2Go is C:\Program Files (x86)\Y2Go\uninstaller.exe. However, if you want to make this removal easier, use an anti-malware program.
