Remove History Cleaner

History Cleaner is just one of the many web browser extensions that have become popular lately. This one goes primarily after Google Chrome, which might not come as a surprise to you because it is the most popular web browser both for individuals and enterprises. People behind this program are familiar with this notion, therefore go after Chrome’s thousands of users and make money through them. How they manage to do this? That’s exactly what we’re going to explain on this article, afterwards we will also offer you a removal guide to get rid of History Cleaner if it has already affected your system.

History Cleaner takes advantage of other programs being installed on your system to get to it; of course this is done as quietly as possible because History Cleaner‘s install is somewhat illegal. The best approach to protect yourself from this is to download only from official and secure websites, but if this is not an option for you, at least make sure to use the advanced install options so you can remove or reject anything you don’t want nor need.

Once History Cleaner is installed on your system, we can say the evil is done because it will be almost impossible to remove it manually unless you happen to be an Windows registry expert. In fact History Cleaner is installed with enterprise rights in Chrome, making its removal impossible as well unless you use the right tools. Thankfully you’ll be presented in the following guide with the right tools (free) to completely remove History Cleaner.
