Hi there, I'm currently having an issue where every time I use a browser "chrome, safari, firefox" on my Mac Desktop there is a search baron that redirects all my searches to the Bing platform. I've tried everything, resetting, re-installing, deleting applications, etc and can't seem to fix the problem. It's very annoying. Any help would be lovely. Thanks!

You have adware/malware installed. Use Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for Mac. It may be necessary to run more than one scan. After scanning a couple of times, restart the computer and test. If necessary, follow the manual instructions. Do not download any other programs that are listed in the articles. Malwarebytes uninstall

You are welcome. Have you checked Safari/Preferences/Search to see if Google is set as the search engine?
Thanks Eric! That actually did help! The bing browser is still in the search bar but now if I type google.com it will stay on google rather than redirect like before. Cheers, man!
