SearchArchive

Posted: June 16, 2020

SearchArchive is an annoying Mac application that has no official website or company behind it and, instead, it is being spread randomly with the use of misleading downloads, fake promises and shady software bundling methods. If you somehow end up with the SearchArchive adware present on your computer, you may experience a plethora of side issues related to your Web browsing habits – the goal of SearchArchive is to expose you to many advertisements whenever your browser is active, and it also may be responsible for random redirects to unknown websites. Removing SearchArchive manually may prove to be a challenging task since the adware takes several steps to ensure that it will keep running for as long as possible – it configures a new 'Launch Daemon' and it also sets up a separate 'Device Profile' for it. The latter step allows it to regularly modify the Safari Web browser's settings without the user's approval.

If your Mac Web browsing sessions have been containing too many advertisements recently, then you might want to look into the problem and find the software responsible for it. Thankfully, you can make sure that adware like SearchArchive will not bother you anymore by running a trustworthy Mac security scanner.
