Safe search Google activated by itself
-
Hello. I don’t understand. One fine day, SafeSearch turned on by itself on Google. Since then, I can’t make any adult searches. And when I try to follow the procedure to disable SafeSearch, it doesn’t work. No matter how many times I uncheck the "enable SafeSearch" option and save, SafeSearch remains active.
Have I been hacked???

Hello,
it catches you like that, you downloaded something you shouldn't have (often free Bundles), hard to escape, it's quite sneaky....
Can you do this:
1) ZHP cleaner from this link: https://nicolascoolman.eu
Do a scan and a cleanup....
2) ADWcleaner, here: https://nicolascoolman.eu
Again, scan and cleanup and of course restart.
Can you also provide the reports, please?
3) Also install MBAM in its free version and do a scan, quarantine what it finds: https://telecharger.malekal.com/download/malwarebytes-anti-malware-version-gratuite/
You have a tutorial here: https://www.malekal.com/tutoriel-malwarebyte-anti-malware/
Can you also provide the quarantine report, please?-

Okay, I had noticed that he set himself up 'despite you',
are you talking about this one:

Yes!!! And what worries me is that he really activated it all by himself! How is that possible?
And since then, it's impossible to disable it. At least, when I uncheck "activate safe search," which is pre-checked, it tells me that it's saved, but in fact, we notice at the next Google search that the safe search filter is still active. -
Have you tried resetting the browser?
