If your intention is to remove malware, there are so many other ways to remove malware from your mac device. You need not format the device, rather you need to get an antivirus software which would scan the device and remove the malware if found..

Follow the procedures to scan device for error

  • Restart your Mac.
  • During reboot, hold down Command-R until it starts up.
  • Once rebooted, you should be in the Internet Recovery Partition. Select Disk Utility.
  • Click Continue.
  • In Disk Utility, click on the First Aid button,
  • Click on Run to execute.

The best way to remove infections off your device is by reinstalling your MacOS and your apps from scratch after wiping the hard disk.
