A CleanMyMac doc might be in one of the folders located inside the Logs.

There is no way to reverse the effects of having used CleanMyMac2, and the developers uninstallation instructions are ineffective.

Only MacPaw, its developer, can know the reason for that, but I can think of two possibilities: either they are purposefully leaving components behind for reasons known only to them, or they simply dont know what theyre doing.

Reinstalling OS X alone will have no effect on either removing CleanMyMac or reversing the damage it is capable of inflicting upon a system.

Follow the applicable recovery procedure below: If you have a backup that you created prior to using CleanMyMac, now is the time to use it.

Cleaner Paw Mac OS X Utilities

For Time Machine, boot OS X Recovery, and at the Mac OS X Utilities screen, choose Restore from Time Machine Backup.

If you do not have a backup that predates the use of CleanMyMac, create one now.

The recovery procedure will require that you erase the Mac using OS X Recovery, and then create a new user whose contents will be empty.

You will then be able to use Setup Assistant to migrate your essential documents including photos, music, work products and other essential files.

When doing so, select only your previous User account and do not select Applications, Computer and Network Settings or Other files and folders.

Cleaner Paw Software You May

Subsequent to using Setup Assistant, you will need to reinstall the essential software you may require, once again remembering to install software only from their original sources, and omitting all non-essential software.

To erase and install Mavericks read: OS X Mavericks: Erase and reinstall OS X To migrate your essential documents read: OS X: How to migrate data from another Mac using Mavericks and follow the procedure under Time Machine or other disk migration.
