Remove VideoX - it works
You should remove the "VideoX" adware because it displays dubious pop-ups and redirects you to websites infected with viruses. This practical tip shows you how to clean the annoying software from your system.
Step 1: Uninstall Adware VideoX from Windows
VideoX is not a virus, but an adware that is often supplied with a freeware program. Once not paying attention, the program nests in the browser and makes surfing the World Wide Web virtually impossible. First you have to uninstall the software from the Windows system.
- To do this, search for the program and uninstall it.
- If you cannot find the adware, sort the installed programs by the installation date and remove any unknown new additions.
- Then you should carry out a detailed scan with "CCleaner".
Step 2: clean up browser and remove VideoX
After that you have to reset all your browsers to the default settings. The following instructions show you how this works in the most common browsers:
- Google Chrome
- Firefox
- Internet Explorer
- safari
- Opera
Clean up browser link
- Since the adware often manipulates the links, you still have to check the browser links.
- If necessary, remove incorrect entries in the links according to our instructions.
Step 3: final check for parts of VideoX
