"Using a browser Google Chrome and suddenly, for no apparent reason, the Google search engine was redirected to the Mail.ru search engine. Let's say I write any word, the browser first shows the search results in Google and after a few seconds everything changes to Mail.ru. The mail does not create any attached tabs, it simply changes the search engine, despite the fact that by default everything is also set to Google. Files of type Guard or Satellite are not installed. Cleaning the registry did not give a result, deleting the folders associated with Mail.ru, disabling extensions and search engines, except for Google, also did not lead to anything worthwhile. Mile kept attacking my Chrome search engine."

Go.mail.ru is a well-known search engine from the Mail.ru portal. Many users choose it as their home page or as their default search engine.

Thus, when installing the desired free program, the user's Google Chrome browser settings are automatically changed, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer(edge). Go.mail.ru replaces the home page, the page that opens when creating a new tab, and the default search engine.

Question: Yandex.Browser (Yandex.Browser)
Yandex browser
Latest version: 15.6 (09.06.2015)
Yandex. Browser- a browser created by Yandex based on an open source browser Chromium.
Yandex.Browser has all the main features modern browsers, and also has a number distinctive features. The web browser has a built-in file viewer PDF format and Adobe player Flash Player(as in Chrome). The browser is integrated with Yandex services: mail, translator, Yandex.Disk and search.
It is possible to synchronize bookmarks, extensions, passwords, browser settings between various devices, as well as Reserve copy this data on the "cloud" server of "Yandex".
Like Chromium, when entering text into the address bar, it is sent to the Yandex server as search query, and the search results are added to the autocomplete list.
The Mail.ru service can be very intrusive. And obsessive to such an extent that we ourselves do not notice how various products from this service appear on our computer. Moreover, it is the user's inattention that is to blame. When a person installs any program on his computer, during the installation process he does not uncheck some items, which just the same contribute to the fact that in the future the user begins to have questions, such as: how to remove mail ru search from yandex.
The problem lies in such a program: "" and other similar products from Mile. First you need to remove them, and then mess with the browser.
Open the "Start" menu, visit the "Control Panel" section, then click on "Add or Remove Programs". If you have a list installed applications is not huge, then you will quickly be able to find the program that we mentioned above. You will also need to get rid of the Sputnik mail.ru utility. Right-click -> left-click on the "Delete" item.
Half the job is done, now we need to do some manipulations with our browser or browsers.
Personally, I work withMozillaFireFox, but I'll tell you more how to remove mail ru search from Yandex in Google browser Chrome.
Point one - and here the Mail.ru search immediately appears. This nuisance will need to be removed. We make a click on the button under the number 2, then go to the "Add-ons" section. And here we see that the Sputnik Toolbar from the above service is working for us. Delete it immediately, and then do not forget to restart the browser program.
If your entire page has changed, that is, there is no Yandex at all, there is only Mail.ru, then in this case you need to do the same manipulations described above. First, remove programs from Mail.ru from your computer, and then remove add-ons in the browser you are working with.
Now it remains to make the "final touch". Pay attention to the item under the number 2, where the addresses of Mail.ru are now indicated. We need to register the search engine with which we work. AT this case We are talking about Yandex. Accordingly, we enter the following address:. Don't forget to restart your browser.
Brief instructions for removing the pest fromGoogleChrome:
Click the button on the screenshot, then click the settings tab
Take a look at the attached image, which shows the button we are clicking on. Next, go to the main "Settings".
Personally, I have no problem, respectively, not listed in the address bar Mail.ru. You also need to edit this item by indicating the Internet address of Yandex.
Surely Mail.ru got to us in the "Extensions" of Chrome, from there you also need to remove the pest. Open the "Tools" section, and from there go to the "Extensions" category. There should be a toolbar from Mile. Delete it, and then restart the browser program.
If you did everything right, the problem will definitely be solved!
The topic of the instruction that you started reading will be fixing the redirect from the Google page to Mail.ru. By the way, by subscribing to our You tube channel you can not only read this manual, but also watch a video on how I did it. So be sure to join, you will not regret.
So, back to our topic. I am sure that those who use a computer and the Internet know perfectly well what Mail.ru is, probably even those who were not even particularly interested in it. For a very long time, in different ways, the developers of Mail.ru, using hidden installation through some applications, have been trying to get us to work with their products.
For example, they change the default search, install various extensions, or install the Amigo browser. But, in principle, everyone got used to it and treated it normally. But recently I came across something new.
In general, Google was set as the default search in the browser. That is, we enter a request into the address bar and get a response from Google, everything seems to be fine. But, if you open the page itself at Google.com, the fun begins. Not only did advertising appear immediately, in a new window or full screen, when you opened the search engine, but when you tried to search, the go.mail.ru page appeared instead of Google results, with the request that was specified earlier.
That is, when trying to specify something in the search bar, there was a redirect to go.mail.ru, and so on absolutely every browser. In general, there is no limit to Mail.ru's impudence, this is some kind of direct disrespect for the user's choice.
Of course, I immediately set about fixing and deleting the go.mail.ru search, which was displayed instead of the Google page. And I want to share with you how I did it, maybe this decision will help you get rid of the obsessive mail.ru search.
First Steps to Eliminate Redirects from Google to go.mail.ru
Delete everything not desired programs from the "Control Panel", such as Amigo, Log in to the Internet, Mail.ru Update and so on. Again, I emphasize that the implementation of these points is recommended for those users who do not work with mail.ru applications and do not need them.
Also clear the user folder, namely in C:\Users(Users)\Username\AppData\local, there is a Mail.ru folder that needs to be deleted. By the way, do not forget otherwise you will not find "local".
If after that the redirection from Google to go.mail.ru remains, then those that are in the same “local” folder are “TEMP”.
So, having launched the utility, click on the "Scan" button.
It will take a few seconds to check and detect threats, such as redirecting from Google to mail.ru.
Upon completion, you will see a list of infected files and registry keys, you can also open a more detailed report by clicking on the corresponding button.
Well, in order to remove the go.mail.ru search instead of google, click on the "Clear" button.
Again, we wait a few seconds and, at the request of the utility, restart the computer to complete the removal of infected files.
Showing Mail.ru instead of Google? Delete your browser...
And finally, the surest option, which almost always helps to get rid of such dirty tricks, is complete removal your Internet browser while deleting all user folders.
Before this process begins, you will be asked whether to delete user folders or not? We tick off that we need to get rid of all user data and continue.
It's just that if you don't do this and continue deleting, then after new installation these files will be moved back, respectively, and infected objects that were sent to Mail.ru instead of Google during the search will also follow them and you will have to start all over again.
So, I managed to redirect to Mail.ru. By the way, maybe you have some other options for solving this problem, if so, then leave them in the comments, send me an email or
Taking advantage of the inattention of the computer owners, the mail giant Mail very often installs its applications without their knowledge, replacing the start pages of browsers and search pages, which is very annoying and alarming for the user who is used to "their settings". And then the question arises before the owner: “How to delete mail.ru search”?
Not so scary!
To begin with, regardless of the browser you have installed, we will use the services of the Control Panel utility "Add or Remove Programs". In the window that opens, without regret, delete [email protected], Mail.ru Sputnik and similar illegally installed programs. If you do not do this at the beginning, the following steps will not bring the desired result.
We train on the Mozilla Firefox browser
Our uninvited guest is most deeply "registered" in Mozilla browser Firefox. Using his example, we will see how you can remove the mail.ru search.
In the drop-down list of the search string, select the search engine familiar to you, for example, Yandex.
It will be used in the future by default.
Next, to permanently remove the mail ru search, type about:config in the address bar. We promise that we will be careful when changing settings, and we get into the storage of all browser settings. Don't be afraid of their abundance! We will find all the information we need using the search bar, where we enter “mail.ru”. Manually, on each line found, change the state to "Reset".
We re-enter the browser settings, search for "keyword.URL" and also reset it. By default, the search string you selected earlier is set.
How to remove mail.ru line from other browsers?
AT Chrome browsers and Opera, the actions to remove the mail.ru search are limited only to the fact that in the settings you need to change the default search to any other.
Yes, don't forget to change also start page your browser. And nothing will remind you of a hidden enemy invasion!
