How to remove Searchanytimeyoulike.com

What is Searchanytimeyoulike.com

According to browser behavior, Searchanytimeyoulike.com seems to be part of Potentially Unwanted Software known as browser hijackers. The presence of such software unearths a number of privacy threats. In other words, developers behind it are likely to pursue data-tracking goals for financial matters. Also, continuously working browser hijackers can put your search into a loop of various doubtful and dangerous websites that can potentially damage your PC. Usually, these hijackers implement their function through browser add-ons. Sometimes they can be additionally powered by desktop applications that work inside of a system as background processes. At this point, the list of extensions suspected of causing Searchanytimeyoulike.com redirects contains only Picture-in-picture Mode and Adkill, however, there might be some other dubious add-ons related as well. Thus, if you see Searchanytimeyoulike.com or similar websites appear along with other changes, we recommend you to take a list of measures described in our guide below.

How Searchanytimeyoulike.com infected your computer

As mentioned, browser hijackers and other types of unwanted programs are usually promoted by separate applications that either install sticky browser add-ons or impose different changes on their own. These applications often prevent users from deleting an unwanted app using traditional methods. In general, such unwanted software tends to proliferate systems via pirated, cracked, or free installation kits advertised on third-party resources. These kits are often titled as repacks that contain additional offers apart from the main program. Unfortunately, most users are not aware of that, which increases their chances of missing such offers during the setup. As a rule, promotional offers are hidden inside of “Advanced”, “Custom”, “Manual”, or similar sections. It is often impossible to dodge installations of additional software unless you deselect it by yourself. This is because they are set by developers for automatic installation by default. To learn more about removal as well as protection against such threats in the future, follow our guide below.
