NORD VPN has bricked my Early 2011 Macbook pro running OS 10.13

Today a Nord VPN pop-up wanted to add a "New Helper" software. Ever since using my admin password the computer is slow to operate. I have reinstalled the OS from a time machine backup, believing it would get rid of the issue, but NO! Very exasperating. Help if you can. Thanks.

Click to reinstall the application, right click to cancel the option of update and force quit once it complete installation on mac; c. Open the Finder, and select the CyberGhost app icon, then right click to move it to trash; d. Eventually take a look the finder, the system is well done. Hope the answer would be helpful to you.

HMA VPN reinstallation not possible Hello everyone, I have a bug with my new Mac Pro M3. This morning, the VPN wouldn't start. So I removed the VPN using CleanMyMac Pro. Now, when I try to reinstall the VPN, I get an error. After consulting several forums, it seems that the solution is to completely reinstall my Mac. However, this is impossible for me because I haven't backed up all my data yet and I don't want to lose anything, being still a Mac beginner. Could you suggest another solution to solve this problem with the VPN without having to reinstall my Mac? Thank you in advance for your help. Thanks

McAfee Total Protection Hello! Thank you for your help in advance. I own a MacBook Air with the new M2 chip running Ventura OS. For some reason when attempting download the updated 2023 Mcafee Total protection the installation starts and then vanishes almost immediately. I spoke with Mcafee customer service and they suggested it was a potential settings issue with my firewall. Any idea how to fix this?
