jaywalker Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 The Trovi search engine has firmly entrenched itself as my default homepage in Chrome, Firefox and IE. I've done the settings/options etc all to no avail. Running Windows 8.1 Any help is most appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaywalker Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 http://lavasoft.com/mylavasoft/company/blog/how-to-remove-trovi-search Just a suggestion, but did you even google "How to remove Trovi" or similar? Lavasoft just says to do everything I've already done. The program doesn't show up in my browser extensions. It doesn't show up under "Uninstall a program". If I can't find it on my machine, how do I remove it???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ezzra Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I had a nasty and annoying search engine that installed it self as part of another app and could not get rid of it no matter what I have tried until I ran this cleaner... http://www.yac.mx/ (yet another cleaner) and lo and behold, it's got rid of it.. give it a go...

Thanks, I tried the AdwCleaner & it didn't work. HitmanPro however, did the trick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
