You will need to provide more information for someone to assist you. DuckDuckGo is a respected privacy-focused web search provider that also offers a privacy-focused web browser and browser extensions. You will need to describe which of these you would like to remove.


Do you wish to remove:


  • The DuckDuckGo browser that you installed
  • The DuckDuckGo browser extension that you installed in another browser
  • The use of DuckDuckGo as your search provider in a browser
