Scenario
The ticket reads: "My browser starts on some 'Searchly' page, every search goes through Searchly instead of Bing, and when I fix the settings they change themselves back." A "free download manager" installed last week came bundled with a Searchly Toolbar extension. In Microsoft Edge (⋯ menu > Extensions and Settings): • Remove the Searchly Toolbar extension. • Set the home page back to https://intranet.example and save. • Set the search engine back to Bing. • Clear cached images and files, and cookies and other site data. Grading is on the final state.
