I have this message in my Google Chrome: "The administrator of this device has installed extensions for additional functions. Extensions have access to some of your data."

My google chrome says, "You browser is manager". However, this is my home pc and there is one extension "ProManagerRecord" that has been installed and I am not able to delete it.


This extension is directing all my search results to yahoo engine even if I search on google.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.3

That is a search redirect and could be adware. You can use either EtreCheck or MalwareBytes to detect and remove adware. The free version of either should work, and we trust them because they were developed by active and respected contributors to this community.
