There is a running process called "RelayUploader" on a Mac machine. The user associated with that process is "nobody". What is the purpose of this process? Is it something legit or should this process be a security concern?

Best Answer

This isn't a proper answer, just some things you may want to try:

  1. RelayUploader (aka Relay.Uploader) seems to be associated with a company called TechSmith... do you have any of their apps?

  2. If you have a malware of virus scanner, you should run a scan on it.

  3. Have you looked at the info available in Activity Monitor? (If not, open Activity Monitor, select the process from the list, then click the i icon in the Activity Monitor dialog). What does it say in the Open Files and Ports tab? Do you recognize any of these files?
