Good evening,

Before I can provide you with an answer, I would like to ask for some clarifications:
- Do you want to remove Yahoo from your computer?
- Do you want to remove the search tool?
- Something else?

Hello, I need to ask for information but I would like to remove Yahoo from my computer. I've tried, but it keeps coming back. I want to delete it permanently, so please let me know what I need to do. Thank you.

Hello,

Sorry for my slight delay. If you are on Windows, Yahoo may be installed by default, so you might need to dig a little deeper than your personal files.
Without wanting to panic you, while searching Google a bit, I found similar issues, and from what I understand, this is due to a virus. Do you have antivirus software?
Maybe this will help you:

I clarify that the fact that it is installed by default has nothing to do with the virus hypothesis, and furthermore, I believe that this version of events is completely erroneous.

Thank you for getting back to me. Yes, I have an antivirus; if it is installed by default, I have nothing to fear, that’s good. Thank you again for being patient; I am elderly and I am not an expert.
