TotalConsoleSearch is a low-quality application for the macOS. TotalConsoleSearch may be brought to your attention via misleading online advertisements, but it also is possible that you may install it accidentally when interacting with low-quality software bundles. The good news is that making the mistake of installing TotalConsoleSearch is not a major issue. This software does not exhibit harmful behavior, but it is considered a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) by reputable anti-malware product vendors.

If TotalConsoleSearch is installed on your Mac device, it may be difficult to remove it manually since it takes some measures to gain persistence. For example, TotalConsoleSearch will apply changes to the 'Launch Daemon' and 'Device Profile' Mac utilities to ensure that its removal will not be an easy task. Thankfully, you do not need to worry about identifying and removing all of its components manually since you can take care of the task with a reputable macOS security tool. Failing to remove TotalConsoleSearch may allow the PUP to apply unwanted changes to your Web browser's behavior, such as redirecting you to unknown websites, displaying advertisements and more.
