FunctionRecord

Posted: July 14, 2020

FunctionRecord is a misleading Mac application that may promise you great things, but its true purpose is to bring more traffic to a search engine affiliated with Safe Finder. While the changes that FunctionRecord brings to your Mac are not dangerous, they may diminish the quality of your Web browsing sessions by forcing you to use a search engine that you are not familiar with. Furthermore, there is no guarantee regarding the reliability of Safe Finder's search algorithm – it may prioritize sponsored results, therefore leading you to potentially irrelevant pages.

When the FunctionRecord application is installed on your Mac, it will immediately configure a new 'Device Profile' to make its changes persistent, and it may also set up a new 'Launch Daemon' to ensure that FunctionRecord will be loaded whenever the computer boots up.

If you are experiencing any of the issues that FunctionRecord is known to cause, you should consider having the problem resolved as soon as you can. It is recommended to remove the FunctionRecord by running a reputable Mac security tool – this is the best way to ensure that all changes and files brought by FunctionRecord will be eliminated.
