TiktokSearches

Posted: June 5, 2020

TiktokSearches is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that is in no way associated with the official TikTok social media platform. Users might be tempted to install TiktokSearches because it claims to give them the opportunity to search for the TikTok content quickly, but it is important to mention that this feature is pointless – if you wish to browse the TikTok content, you can simply visit the social media's website. TiktokSearches pretends to be useful and helpful because its goal is to get you to agree to allow the add-on to replace your browser's default new tab page with Portal.tiktok-searches.com.

The search results that Portal.tiktok-searches.com delivers often may be mixed up with various advertisements, and it is questionable if their quality will be as good as popular search services like Bing, Google and Yahoo. If TiktokSearches has hijacked your browser's configuration and replaced your new tab page, then we advise you to take the required steps to remove this PUP and revert your browser's settings.

Manual removal of TiktokSearches is one of your options, but it is a better choice to take care of the issue with the help of a trustworthy PC security tool that can dispose of all of the PUP's components.
