Hi guys. Urgent need here. 1 week ago i didnt have this problem but now im dealing with some RAM issue here. This AppYS keep popping up on the Activity Monitor and it consumes 4GB to 5GB of my memory. What is this thing, ehich app uses this process; which i have no idea. Other than that other softwares using standard amount of ram. Actually i have 6gb of ram and when i stop this AppYS process from activity monitor, my system meerly uses 1,6GB of total 6gb. But when this AppYS pops up, whole system loses it mind.

Please help me out of this :/

I would also like to know what "appSY" is

I recently got a pop up window (that looks like a regular apple software update) asking to update software.

but it didn't look quite right to me and I noticed an orange box looking symbol in the dock at the bottom of my screen.

I open force quit and I see "appSY' among the running programs. After I force quit "appSY"
the software update window and the orange box in the dock go away. obviously this seems like malware.

I googled "appSY" and get nothing. I googled "appSY mac" and didn't find much about "aapSY" besides this post and this link (5th one down)

https://www.iboostup.com/app/com.yshur.appys

I just emailed them asking whats up and will let you know their reply. I want to remove this appSY!

Did you find a solution?
Thanks

I found the answer: Search Quitelex in the search bar at the top right of ur Mac and there should be an UninstallQuitelex app. Open it and hit Abort. That's what I did and I haven't seen AppYS since
