His National Front (FN) rival, Marine Le Pen, had eggs thrown at her as she campaigned in Brittany on Thursday.
Meanwhile Mr Macron has filed a lawsuit over online rumours that he had a secret bank account in the Caribbean.
He has strongly denied the allegations, which were mentioned by Ms Le Pen in Wednesday evening's rancorous final TV debate between the two contenders.

A separate poll, carried out by Elabe for BFMTV and L'Express, found support for Mr Macron had risen to 62% among those who had decided how to cast their vote, compared to 38% for his far-right rival.
In other developments on Thursday:
- Former US President Barack Obama endorsed Mr Macron in a video message, praising his "liberal values" and saying he "appeals to people's hopes and not their fears"
- Ms Le Pen's estranged father Jean-Marie, a co-founder of the National Front (FN) who was expelled from the party in 2015, said he thought she "perhaps did not rise to the occasion" in the TV debate
