Sorry reposting because my iPhone auto correct is extremely annoying.
I am consistently getting a browser Hijack while using Safari on mainstream websites.
I can quit out and clear cache and history but this is a nuisance.
so far, the only permanent workaround seems to be using Chrome which seems to not get hijacked, but Ai would prefer to use Safari.
is there a fix?
iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 13
macOS Safari
1. Remove unknown profiles if present.
System Preferences > Profiles
Open System Preferences, click the “Profiles” icon ( a checkmark on a gear) .
When Profiles pane opens, select the unknown profile and click the minus button at the bottom.
2. Remove unknown extensions: Safari > Preferences > Extensions

3. Check for adware.
Run the latest release of Malwarebytes for Mac to remove malware/adware, if installed on your Mac.
For instructions: Install Malwarebytes for Mac Uninstall Malwarebytes for Mac
Click the “Scan Now” button. Once done, quit Malwarebytes for Mac.
Restart the computer and relaunch Safari holding the shift key down.
Additional steps if necessary.
