I have been advised to install/reinstall a fresh OS because the suspicion is that I have been hacked.
I wish to upgrade my Yosemite to El Capitan by using the Upgrade option on my current Yosemite
version, but I understand that the operation must be a new install and not just an upgrade otherwise I just carry the problem with me.
I have copied and tired all the data I wish to preserve, but I do not understand what exactly will happen to all my applications. Some came with the OS but many have been purchased as and when I needed them.
I have a 2013 iMAC
Do I lose the lot, or some or do I have an option on which ones I can keep?
