I've been having the same issue,
Hiya, I'm also having the same issue with the same policies but it won't let me upload my screenshot. I have used Fix: Your Browser Is Managed By Your Organisation Message In Edge Browser (thegeekpage.com) & Chrome "Managed By Your Organization" Browser Hijacker (Windows) - Simple removal instructions, search engine fix (updated) (pcrisk.com) but nothing has helped. I have downloaded Malwarebytes and combi cleaner and both are not picking up the malware.
hello. my browser is being managed by an organization. in the edge policy it says Extensioninstallforcelist. i have tried everything i could and nothing worked. i cant change it and i dont know anything about electronics and i dont want to mess up my computer. please help! thank you
See if this clears things for you.
- Type powershell into search and launch Windows Powershell as administrator.
- Copy and paste in all the bold text below (both lines at once) into Powershell then press enter :
reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\ExtensionInstallForcelist /f;reg delete HKCU\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\ExtensionInstallForcelist /f;
- In Edge, enter edge://policy/ into the URL bar and press enter.
- Click on 'Reload Policies'
If ExtensionInstallForcelist is still present then you likely have malware.
In that case, please upload and share logs from Farbar Recovery Scan Tool (FRST).
https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/farbar-recovery-scan-tool/
- If your computer language is not English, rename FRST64.exe to FRST64English.exe
- Run FRST and press "Scan"
- Two logs are created in the folder that FRST is run from, FRST.txt and Addition.txt
- Upload the logs to OneDrive, Google Drive or any file sharing service
- Post the share link
Note: If you are downloading FRST with Edge, smartscreen will initially block it.
Click on the 3 dots next to the warning and select Keep-> Show more-> Keep anyway.
I've done this - when you say 'post it' do you want us to post the link to you? I don't understand what you want next?
I have the share link below - Computer
This should sort things for you. First close out any apps you have running, so you don't lose any unsaved work.
Let me know if this resolves the issue.
