Pretty good video....I notice this is still happening though from the browser hijacker malware being "updated" to do extra things to make it more annoying to remove. This so far was my current experience. Unfortunately unless one of the programs I tried, and probably others, are run from Safe Mode, they will find the "symptom files" of the Hijacker, but miss the actual Hijacker itself EVEN IF THE PROGRAM THAT INSTALLED THE HIJACKER IS FOUND AND UNINSTALLED. And even in this instance one more nice little present this program leaves for you is modifying your DNS server to some weird place in Indonesia in my case, which is designed to make it impossible to go to most any Microsoft website, MalwareBytes website, and probably several others. Once this last little tidbit was fixed things are now back to normal for me. The following comment starts with a reference of how to simply turn off the "Managed by your Organization" flag in Chrome, which while correct, is singularly unhelpful in the instance of this hijacker. Solution WILL indeed remove the "Managed by your organization" notation in your 3dot menu and when you look at "Extensions" and some other areas in your Chrome browser. THIS DOES NOT HOWEVER Resolve the main reason for many of these specific complaints about this recently. There is a new version of a Browser Hijacker virus/malware/trojan going around now and this is only ONE of the symptoms of what it does to your system. I should also note that a full scan of the system currently by MalwareBytes AND McAfee AV does NOT completely remove this hijacker from your system, mainly because MalwareBytes simply does not know how to find ALL the instances and modifications this Hijacker is making on your system, and McAfee has always been a bit more concerned with actual viruses and things that do permanent damage to your files on your system. If you notice a strange new Extension in your list of them, and it's the one that cannot be disabled then this is a sign that this Hijacker has in fact gotten on to your system. In my case it was from being foolish and running an executable file I thought was safe, even though it was from a suspicious source, because scanning the executable itself with McAfee did not find any issues with the file. It has taken me almost a week to finally get rid of this Hijacker but I now can say that I am back to normal operation. For me it was a lengthy manual process of finding registry entries and deleting them, deleting extension files manually from Chrome directories, and then finally realizing the last thing the Hijacker had done was changed my DNS server from my normal one to some weird place in Indonesia. Currently from discussion with other technical support users the easiest way to get rid of this program is to do a system restore from a date before it infected the system, if this is known, and is best done in Safe Mode, and with antivirus software temporarily disabled. IF the date the issue started occurring is not well known. Or there isn't any way or someone dosent feel comfortable in how to get into Safe Mode and temporarily disable their Antivirus programs then hopefully soon a more simplified and comprehensive solution will be forthcoming from MalwareBytes or some of the other major Antivirus manufacturers.

I had to install a program so i could take an exam at my university.Once i installed the program the problem in question happened. My question is - what kind of information could have they collected during the time they were governing my browser? Thank you in advance and THANK YOU SO MUCH for the solution you have provided! I really do not appreciate someone sifting through my personal information , so thank you again!
david fakhry thanks for the feedback! Please consider sharing the video and information on your social media, it really helps to get the message out there.
Just saw this after i posted my comment, check this to be safe I didnt have clean up computer option. I have a Mac so I had a look in my system settings and saw a 'Profiles' icon that i'd never seen before (Profiles, not 'Users & Groups'). I clicked on that and it had 4 profiles that had the same name of the search engine that my chrome kept defaulting to. I have no idea how this happened but once I removed all of them the "Managed by an Organisation" disappeared.
worked for me Apple icon > system preferenes > profiles > (anything here that's unfamiliar, hit the "-" minus button and delete it; ideally there should be nothing in profiles. Hope this helps
For mac users - if defaults delete com.google.Chrome ExtensionSettings will not help GO TO System Preferences > Profiles > remove profile of Search Agent

Here is a tip, some anti virus programs have a real time web protection shield. (avast) When this is turned on the managed by your organization message will appear. If you delete your registry and it goes away only to come back when you restart your computer it's because another program in your computer is constantly putting it back. For me it was avast real time protection shield. If you turn it off the message goes away next time you open your browser. However if you checked your anti virus and your extensions and the messages still appears you may have a unwanted guest looking at everything you do on your browser. To remove that your may need to run malawarebytes or avast on the full scan setting. Sometimes you may need to boot up in safe mode just in case the virus tries to startup and interfere with your defense. Also deleting you browser won't solve the issue. In fact if you uninstall the program and not the registry that malicious policy will still be there. Don't be afraid of your registry editor. It's your friend, if your worried you'll mess you computer up just back up the registry. Of course do this on your home device not a business device. It's common to have your browser managed in places like school or work. Hope this helped the issue.
Thank you!! btw I found it in local machine, software, policies, google, chrome, then the file. It wouldn't let me delete the file so I tried deleting the chrome folder, it didn't let me, but it let me delete the google folder and that worked and got rid of it.
Thank you so much!! I found a policy in the registry edit under Google>Chrome>BlacklistExtension . I deleted that registry and the "Managed" line is now gone from my Chrome. I initially did Three Dots>Settings>Advanced>Clean Up Computer but it seemed to scan for ages so I moved on to Registry edit. Thank you so much!!
Man you are a savior! I was pretty worried about what was going on, even reinstall chrome but it seems that the problem was at the Registry Editor - Local Machine. Thank you a lot!
if you are here wondering why the policy is there again after rebooting, and you use avast as your antivirus. Open your Avast > go to menu > settings > protection > core shields > configure shield settings > web shield > uncheck "enable QUIC/HTTP3 scanning".

Thanks, Mike! Finally got rid of that chainthorn malware. All those articles online are just BS advertising for their Antivirus software. Liked and subscribed.
Thank you very much for the video! It was incredibly helpful and it helped me get rid of nasty and annoying malware that my anti-virus couldn't get rid of.
thank you! under policies i found a "google" profile (which before i thought was just google) but after reading the comments i found out it wasnt, deleted it and now the management is gone! thank you
YOUR VIDEO is the ONLY one that I found that helped with the problem. Current Mazy Search Redirect can not be removed or detected by Chrome or Norton. The ONLY way I did it was through the Regedit and found the policies for Chrome and something called Chromium... removed those policies and fixed it... ONLY thing I found that worked... THANK YOU! Subscribed now...
Thank you so much, I was stressing out so much. Recommended the video to some friends just incase they need it aswell. I didn't think it was anything bad, turns out it was. Thank you so so so much.
That worked, this is why free antivirus software does not work properly, if you go to suspicious websites and try downloading torrents a solid antivirus is required. Thank you

I'd been trying to get CapitaSpace removed from chrome for like 2 hours and couldn't find it anywhere, this helped my finally find the sucker and delete it. This was incredibly helpful, thank you so much!
great video. happened to a client's mac.. I ended up forcefully deleting chrome completely using Mac Uninstaller to remove all trace elements, then restarting and reinstalling chrome. Works now.
i did the same thing i already delete the google folder in my regedit and policies folder.. good thing it work but unfortunately after restarting my laptop that manage by organization return in my google.. any step how to fully remove that? even if i restart my laptop
I really am thankful for this video because I'm a home user and I was wondering why something like "Your browser is managed by your organization" appeared in my chrome I deleted the chrome registry then I opened the chrome and now that thing is gone. Keep up the good work :)
My computer browsers got hijacked and I could not find any help getting it fixed and no antivirus software was helping. I found out that it simply added crap to my HOST file. Once I replaced my HOST file it fixed all my problems. If you get Hijacked and nothing seems to work search "How to replace my host file" for what ever version of windows you have and that should fix you right up. Good luck and help spread the word!

BRO YOU SAVED MY ACCOUNT TYSM I have been trying to get rid of it for days, and when you said they shouldn’t have any policies in the registry, I checked and sure enough there were the google and chromium policy folders. I deleted both out of policies and ran a full scan, and nothing!
might be worth doing some deeper scans of the system and maybe turn off system restore and delete the backups in case the rogue software is hiding in there
Thanks! The registry thing removed the warning. I think one Brazilian stock broker implemented that policy somehow. Brazilian banking sites are usually awful in the sense they force you to install their "security tools" but I never saw anything like a website changing the policies in your browser like that.
So I fucked up and managed to get more than 100 malware on my pc. After a few hours of scans, removals and shit I noticed my chrome saying it's managed by my "organization". Ofc I was like "dammit what is it again" this video helped me, thanks.
@@mikesunboxing Well... all the ones I know off are clean. Might be some undetectable ones hidding somewhere, I am tryina see what I can do about that.
Thank you! I thought it said managed by your organisation all the time and was prepared to leave it, did some digging landed here and bada bind bada boom its gone.
The first option wasn't working as it kept saying an error occured during the chrome cleanup but when I looked in the registry I found a force extensions list that I had not seen before so I deleted it and now the issue is gone :) Great Vid!
I got this problem, my chrome will always auto close and when I opened it back, my chrome got the unwanted extensions and was managed by an unauthorized organization, also, my search engine changed to something else which is not google anymore. No matter how many times I clear the extensions, reset the chrome and delete the policies, it will still happen several hours later. How can I get rid of this situation, anyone can help?
Also if you are an advanced user and set a policy and forgotten you did that. Such as AllowAutoPlay true (1) then you will also see the browser is being managed dialog aswell.
Absolute GigaChad. Only solution video that ACTUALLY worked Jesus this was a pain in the ass. It's the registry editor that worked for me I found a google folder and ayooo trust me when I say that I deleted that horseshit realll quick. The malware that I was dealing with was called "Micro Search Chrome Extension" and it had been on my computer for multiple months. During that time I tried various solutions but nothing was working until I stumbled on your video. Great work man seriously. You took your time to give out clear, simple, and easy to follow instructions to resolve the problem at hand. Been close to 4 years since you posted this video and it's still super relevant. Great stuff for real keep up the good work. Thank you so much and bless your soul !
This worked. Had to go through the reg. And found in Machine-Policy-Google and then Mozilla (I don't even use Firefox). Deleted both those roots and no longer had the "Your Browser is Managed" tab. EDIT: It reappeared. First did a full browsing history clean. Then completely deleted Chrome through the control panel-programs-uninstall programs-and delete Google Chrome. And re-downloaded Chrome. Then sign back in to sync all your bookmarks. But now go into extensions and get rid of extensions that look suspect. I found three what were not one's I recognized. Good luck all.
Well, I don't have any "Managed by" messages but I had those Google folders, I deleted them with Chrome closed then scanned my pc with cc and malwarebytes, after restarting my computer folder was back :) Now?
wtf i cleaned up the coputer i restored the settings i deleted it from registry but half of it dosent want to be deleted and it is still managed by cityskyscraper is named the site
i have heard about this a few times and i don't know why this happens or how to fix it sorry. I am looking into it and if i find a fix i'll post a video so maybe consider subscribing and then you will be notified when the video might be released.
Awsome it worked thaks alot the find maleware said no maleware found but in the registry i found the problem and deleted it i restarted my pc and it was gone thanks so much
Hope for Escape Thanks for the feedback! Please consider sharing the video and information on your social media, it really helps to get the message out there.
My Chrome has the "Managed by your orginization" but Chrome doesn't detect any harmful programs and there's nothing but the "Default" in my Local Machines Google/Chrome folder.
If you accidentally join an organisation and you're a home user then go to the search bar and put in (settings), then click/search (accounts), (click) access work or school, (right click) the organisation and (disconnect) from it! Some people won't be able to see this unfortunately :(
This isn't necessarily Malware. My Security Suite (Bullguard) causes this indicator to turn on in how it applies itself in order to provide "Safe / Dangerous" indicators to Google Search results....so it might be harmless, and it doesn't really mean it's "being remotely adminstered".
thank you so much, you really helped me out! i've been worrying about this malware for the past five hours LMAO, finally got rid of it! love ya man, stay strong and thanks again :)

You're a lifesaver man, my girlfriend just got her new laptop and somehow downloaded a virus that targeted her extensions but I followed your steps and found both a "chromium" and a "Google" profile, deleted both and it's all good now!

Thank you very much for the video! It was incredibly helpful and it helped me get rid of nasty and annoying malware that my anti-virus couldn't get rid of.
Great to hear!
thank you! under policies i found a "google" profile (which before i thought was just google) but after reading the comments i found out it wasnt, deleted it and now the management is gone! thank you

YOUR VIDEO is the ONLY one that I found that helped with the problem. Current Mazy Search Redirect can not be removed or detected by Chrome or Norton. The ONLY way I did it was through the Regedit and found the policies for Chrome and something called Chromium... removed those policies and fixed it... ONLY thing I found that worked... THANK YOU! Subscribed now...
You're welcome :-)
Thank you so much, I was stressing out so much. Recommended the video to some friends just incase they need it aswell. I didn't think it was anything bad, turns out it was. Thank you so so so much.
Thanks for watching
For me, it’s an extension that was added, so would deleting all the folders in extensions work, or would that f*ck up chrome?
it should be fine you can always add the extensions back in if needed
That worked, this is why free antivirus software does not work properly, if you go to suspicious websites and try downloading torrents a solid antivirus is required. Thank you

Thank you, now I dont have the yahoo startup and also "managed by your organisation'" is gone!
This was a real help.
glad to help
It did the Yahoo thing to me too. I change it back to Chrome and then days later it switches to Yahoo by default.
"Managed By Your Organization" on work laptop, does this mean my employer has access to my personal data, such as passwords for personal accounts?
not necessarily it might just be a limit or restriction on sites that can be viewed or visited
Thank you so much! That message was driving me crazy and your second solution worked! Just question-why is this happening? Is it some kind of error? Greetings from Czech republic:)
Glad it helped

I have a MacBook air and can't find out to fix this!!! When I click on the three dots it says Managed by your organization. This is my personal computer and don't know how this happened. I did the directions you said through chrome but that didn't get rid of it. Please help!!
this worked for my mac...
On your Mac, open System Preferences (click the System Preferences icon in the dock)
Click Profiles
Select AdminPrefs
Delete this profile (AdminPrefs) by pressing the minus icon.
@@PerDiemMetals For me, this removed the extension mycoupons but it still says that my browser is being managed by your organization.
I installed a software called "Autoclicker" after I downloaded it my chromebook started acting weird, It keeps on crashing, Logging me out and sometimes when I'm on my google meet the page says "aww snap" Right now I can't do anything on my chromebook it says 'Chrome Os is missing or damaged"
sorry not too sure what to suggest there, never been a chromebook user
Thank you so much bro the registry one is the method that worked for anybody that was curious

no problem glad to help
Thank you man. Finally found the virus under the registry and was able to delete it entirely.
that is great news
great video. happened to a client's mac.. I ended up forcefully deleting chrome completely using Mac Uninstaller to remove all trace elements, then restarting and reinstalling chrome. Works now.
Thanks for the heads-up
i did the same thing i already delete the google folder in my regedit and policies folder.. good thing it work but unfortunately after restarting my laptop that manage by organization return in my google.. any step how to fully remove that? even if i restart my laptop
I really am thankful for this video because I'm a home user and I was wondering why something like "Your browser is managed by your organization" appeared in my chrome

Dude you are the best! Logged on to my computer today to do school work and had Optimum Search hijacking my search engine, this video saved my life.
Glad I could help!
My computer browsers got hijacked and I could not find any help getting it fixed and no antivirus software was helping. I found out that it simply added crap to my HOST file. Once I replaced my HOST file it fixed all my problems.
If you get Hijacked and nothing seems to work search "How to replace my host file" for what ever version of windows you have and that should fix you right up. Good luck and help spread the word!
good info

BRO YOU SAVED MY ACCOUNT TYSM I have been trying to get rid of it for days, and when you said they shouldn’t have any policies in the registry, I checked and sure enough there were the google and chromium policy folders. I deleted both out of policies and ran a full scan, and nothing!
great news!
Thank You!! I had to go into the registry, but once I deleted it, it was gone from my browser. Whew, mind is at ease now.
Happy days
It fixed it after i deleted the registry thing but then it keeps comming back
might be worth doing some deeper scans of the system and maybe turn off system restore and delete the backups in case the rogue software is hiding in there
Thanks! The registry thing removed the warning. I think one Brazilian stock broker implemented that policy somehow. Brazilian banking sites are usually awful in the sense they force you to install their "security tools" but I never saw anything like a website changing the policies in your browser like that.
Mine happened after I installed Bradesco's tool. Just beware of it being a really bad bank and sucking in that regard.
Thanks for the heads up
So I fucked up and managed to get more than 100 malware on my pc. After a few hours of scans, removals and shit I noticed my chrome saying it's managed by my "organization". Ofc I was like "dammit what is it again" this video helped me, thanks.
glad to help. hopefully all clean now?
@@mikesunboxing Well... all the ones I know off are clean. Might be some undetectable ones hidding somewhere, I am tryina see what I can do about that.
Thank you! I thought it said managed by your organisation all the time and was prepared to leave it, did some digging landed here and bada bind bada boom its gone.
glad to help
The first option wasn't working as it kept saying an error occured during the chrome cleanup but when I looked in the registry I found a force extensions list that I had not seen before so I deleted it and now the issue is gone :) Great Vid!
Did it work?
I got this problem, my chrome will always auto close and when I opened it back, my chrome got the unwanted extensions and was managed by an unauthorized organization, also, my search engine changed to something else which is not google anymore. No matter how many times I clear the extensions, reset the chrome and delete the policies, it will still happen several hours later. How can I get rid of this situation, anyone can help?
might be worth removing chrome entirely , then turn off system restore and delete all restore points, then clean and scan for virus
what did you do, I have this same situation. It says it is controlled by nanouser
Re you being 'the man' - I can confirm that you are the man.
I think it was the registry edit that did it. Thank you so much, mate.
Lol thanks Joe 😉
I removed it from the Regestry and it comes back when i restart my PC. I checked for malware and there seems to be none. Can you please help me?
it could be your antivirus software i know avast sometimes does this
same for me.
Also if you are an advanced user and set a policy and forgotten you did that. Such as AllowAutoPlay true (1) then you will also see the browser is being managed dialog aswell.
Thanks for the info
Absolute GigaChad. Only solution video that ACTUALLY worked Jesus this was a pain in the ass. It's the registry editor that worked for me I found a google folder and ayooo trust me when I say that I deleted that horseshit realll quick. The malware that I was dealing with was called "Micro Search Chrome Extension" and it had been on my computer for multiple months. During that time I tried various solutions but nothing was working until I stumbled on your video. Great work man seriously. You took your time to give out clear, simple, and easy to follow instructions to resolve the problem at hand. Been close to 4 years since you posted this video and it's still super relevant. Great stuff for real keep up the good work. Thank you so much and bless your soul !

For God's Sake, just uninstall Chrome and install it back. It will solve the problem.
yep that doesn't work as the traces in the registry and settings folders will still be there
NO, it does not.

This worked. Had to go through the reg. And found in Machine-Policy-Google and then Mozilla (I don't even use Firefox). Deleted both those roots and no longer had the "Your Browser is Managed" tab.
EDIT: It reappeared. First did a full browsing history clean. Then completely deleted Chrome through the control panel-programs-uninstall programs-and delete Google Chrome.
And re-downloaded Chrome. Then sign back in to sync all your bookmarks. But now go into extensions and get rid of extensions that look suspect. I found three what were not one's I recognized.
Good luck all.
Thanks for letting us know
Well, I don't have any "Managed by" messages but I had those Google folders, I deleted them with Chrome closed then scanned my pc with cc and malwarebytes, after restarting my computer folder was back :) Now?
Are you using avast?

If you accidentally join an organisation and you're a home user then go to the search bar and put in (settings), then click/search (accounts), (click) access work or school, (right click) the organisation and (disconnect) from it! Some people won't be able to see this unfortunately :(

This isn't necessarily Malware. My Security Suite (Bullguard) causes this indicator to turn on in how it applies itself in order to provide "Safe / Dangerous" indicators to Google Search results....so it might be harmless, and it doesn't really mean it's "being remotely adminstered".
true but it is very likely to redirect your web searches and the ads that appear within sites
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH I WAS BOUT TO HAVE A INTERNAL BREAKDOWN
