Cevap
The technician should remove unauthorized browser extensions and reset the browser to its default startup and search engine configurations.
Removing unauthorized browser extensions and resetting the browser settings targets the active mechanisms used by browser hijackers. Rogue extensions often force redirects and generate pop-ups, while resetting preferences returns the search engine and startup pages to a known safe state.
