SearchConverterHD

Posted: June 30, 2020

SearchConverterHD is a tool that users may come across while searching for neat browser utilities to help them convert audio, video, documents or other files. However, installing the SearchConverterHD will not provide you with any unique features and, instead, it will apply undesired changes to your Web browser's settings by forcing you to use the new tab page Search-converterhd.com. On top of this, all Web searches you start through the address bar also will take you to Search-converterhd.com instead of to your preferred search engine.

The changes and redirects that SearchConverterHD causes are not a security concern, but it also is not a surprise that many users find these changes to be intrusive and annoying. If you fall into the latter category, you should take the required steps to uninstall SearchConverterHD since this will undo all changes that this add-on brought. Uninstalling SearchConverterHD can be done via manual removal, or by using specialized PC security software capable of identifying and eliminating Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUPs).
