TechBrowsing.com is a browser hijacker, which tells us that this program was developed specially to modify the most popular web browser’s settings, including Edge, Internet Explorer, Chrome and Firefox, so it can take the place of the browser’s homepage.
Distribution techniques mostly used by TechBrowsing.com are:
Forced or discrete installation through attaching itself to another tool. These tools could be both legitimate and fake (PDF readers, video players, etc…)
Through ads coming from malicious advertisers.
Through the install processes of malicious software.
Through exploiting bugs in web browsers.
The two main goals of this page are to artificially increase its own traffic and to broadcast as many ads as possible. Usually settings changed by TechBrowsing.com are done in such a way that to change them back becomes quite difficult, so much that you won’t actually be able to restore your homepage unless you clean your computer first. This cleaning process can take a lot of time, however there are several free and good tools that can take care of these tasks for you. We advice you to use all of the tools recommended in our guide so you are completely sure you have properly and effectively removed TechBrowsing.com from your computer.
