Remove Radio Canyon

Radio Canyon is an extension that allows direct access to web radios from a button on your browser. It’s a browser extension that runs on Chrome, Firefox or Internet Explorer and causes two problems: the first is that this program is sneakily installed as many adware so that always happens without your consent. The second problem is that Radio Canyon, apart from displaying a button to listen to web radio (which is actually a pretext), displays advertising on your browser during your internet browsing.

These ads usually have the mention Ads by Radio Canyon, so it’s easy to identify their origin. What is left to be done is to remove the unwanted program that was adhered to your system. Also, the more Radio Canyon displays ads, the more the adware designer earns money.

The free guide below will help you uninstall completely and definitely this unwanted program.

For your information please know that Radio Canyon is considered as a parasite by 14 security software.
