To remove XXX, all rogue data, software, and settings must be removed from the system. After that, you should also go to every browser and remove any XXX extensions that you may find there, and then you must also clear their browsing data. Here is a quick summary of each removal step: Step 1: In Control Panel > Uninstall a Program, look for anything that may be linked to XXX and that may have secretly installed it on your computer. If you find such a program or app, uninstall it. Step 2: Make sure that there aren’t any XXX processes still running in the system with the help of the Task Manager tool. Step 3: Visit the system settings listed below, revoke any changes made to them by the hijacker and delete from them any rogue items that shouldn’t be there: The Startup Items list The DNS settings for the network you normally use The Hosts file The System Registry Step 4: Go to each browser in the system, starting with the main one, remove any rogue extensions, and then delete all browsing data.
