How to Remove Boyu.com.tr

Boyu.com.tr is currently one of the most widespread and annoying fake search engines. It hijacks Chromium browsers like Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge and then endlessly redirects the user’s searches to all kinds of sketchy pages.

Boyu.com.tr is associated with many rogue extensions, such as MaxSearch and HyperSearch, that are designed to add it to the browser as its new default search engine. This almost always happens without the user’s informed approval, so most people who encounter Boyu want to get rid of it. However, without removing the respective rogue hijacker extension, you cannot delete boyu.com.tr from Chrome, Edge, or another browser.

The rogue extension itself will typically resist direct removal by employing several clever persistence mechanisms. However, we are well familiar with the tricks used by boyu and rogue extensions linked to it and can guide you every step of the way towards removing them from your browser.

Boyu.com.tr Removal Steps

Always start with the simplest method. Direct removal won’t always work, but if you get lucky, it can save you tons of time:

1. Go straight to the browser that boyu.com.tr hijacked. Find the three-dot or three-line icon in the corner. Click it.
2. Then, access the Settings. Look for the Extensions section.
3. You’ll see all the installed extensions there. Look carefully. You will probably not see an extension maned Boyu. but there will probably be another one that you didn’t install willingly. That’s the one you must delete.
4. Click “Remove” to uninstall the rogue extension and do the same for anything else unfamiliar.
5. Then go to Settings > Search Engine, and restore your preferred search engine tool.
6. Restart the browser to see if all is back to normal.

If you are still getting rerouted to boyu.com.tr and/or there are still unwanted extensions in the browser, don’t worry. The next steps will help you fully get rid of all rogue elements.

How to Get Rid of Boyu.com

If the rogue search engine didn’t get removed after you completed the quick steps, this means that the hijacker extension that introduced it to your browser has also enforced a third-party policy to keep it there.

A “Managed by your organization” message in the browser indicates the existence of such a policy and it means you won’t be able to remove the hijacker extension and boyu until you deal with it first.

Start by opening Chrome. In the address bar, type chrome://policy and go to that page.

If you’re using Edge, type edge://policy. Same with all other Chromium-based browsers, just change the name in the URL.

A list of active browser policies will appear. The rogue ones linked to boyu will have random strings of characters as their values. Copy them and save them somewhere – a text file perhaps. You’ll need them in a bit.

Return to the browser settings and go to the Extension Manager.

If you are unable to open it because you get redirected to another page (for example, Google), do this:

Open the C: drive, go to your Users > your Admin user folder, and navigate this path: C:\Users\*YourUser*\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions.

Delete all folders contained there – this will put out of order all your extensions and make them inactive. Don’t worry. You can reinstall legitimate extensions later.

Now you should be able to enter the Extensions Manager in the browser. Go to it, turn on Developer Mode, and note down the IDs of the rogue extension that introduced boyu.com.tr to your browser. Also do the same with any other sketchy extension you may find there.

Delete Boyu.com Registry Keys

Now that you’ve gathered the necessary information, it’s time to delete the rogue policy record from the system Registry.

Hit Win + R on your keyboard. Type regedit. Press Enter.

Once inside the Registry Editor, press Ctrl + F. Search for the values and extension IDs from earlier.

They’ll show up as registry values (right panel), but you must contain the entire registry key (right panel) that contains them. Delete them when you find them. Always stay cautious. Deleting the wrong key causes more problems than you want to deal with. Only target the keys tied to boyu.com.tr.

Always search again after a deleted key. Don’t stop until there are no more search results for the respective policy value/extension ID.

Sometimes, deleting isn’t allowed. The system blocks access. Fix that by adjusting the key’s permissions:

Right-click the folder above the key. Select Permissions, then click Advanced > Change.

Type “everyone” and click on Check Names.

Then click OK and enable the two “Replace” options.

Now try again to delete the key again.

Additional Policy Cleaning Steps

If the Registry cleanup wasn’t enough and you are still seeing the “Managed by your organization” message in the browser, do this:

Type “Edit Group Policy” into the Start menu and open the tool.

Once inside, expand Computer Configuration on the left and right-click Administrative Templates.

Select Add/Remove Templates, and remove everything in the following list.

If you are having difficulties with removing rogue policies from the Google Chrome browser, you can also use the Chrome Policy Remover tool. It’s totally free and requires no installation – you just need to run it as an administrator.

The tool might prompt a security warning, but no need to worry, it’s safe. Just ignore the warning by clicking More Info > Run Anyway and let the tool do its job.

How to Uninstall the Boyu.com.tr Virus Extension

You’ve successfully deleted the rogue policies, so it’s now finally time to go back to your browser and remove from it any hijacker elements.

Start by going to Settings > Extensions, and delete anything rogue you may find there. Refer to the list of boyu extensions that we gave you a bit earlier.

Then go to the Privacy and security settings, clear all browsing data except passwords for a period that encapsualtes the hijacker’s first appearance in the browser.

Then, still in Privacy and Security, open Site Settings, check the different permission types, and remove any suspicious URLs from their Allow lists. Also, add boyu.com.tr and findflarex.com to the Blocked lists.

Also check the Search Engine settings again, ensure the default one is set to a tool you trust, then open Manage Search Engines, and delete from the list boyu or any other suspicious ones you may find.

Lastly, you should check On Startup and Appearance for any site addresses that have been added there without your permission, and delete them.

This should ensure there are no traces left of boyu.com.tr in your browser.

How to Remove the Boyu.com Virus

Boyu.com.tr, like most hijackers, rarely travels alone. It often sneaks into your system bundled with other malware. These programs stick around and may reinstall the hijacker even after you’ve removed it completely.

Cleaning up boyu.com.tr alone doesn’t guarantee it won’t come back. Don’t leave anything to chance. Rogue apps hide deep within your system and you may have downloaded one without realizing it.

Open your Start Menu. Navigate to Settings. Go to Apps. Look for anything that seems out of place. If you manage to delete any rogue apps, this could help, but it will usually not be enough. Unfortunately, we can’t provide specific removal instructions for any rogue apps still lingering on your PC, because those apps could be anything.

This is why we recommend that you download a reliable anti-malware program. SpyHunter, which you can find on this page, works well for this. It digs deeper than manual methods.

It sniffs out hidden threats and removes them. You may try other tools, but ensure they are reputable. Scanning prevents headaches down the line. After all, you don’t want to repeat this entire process.
