Remove New Tab Explorer
New Tab Explorer is an intrusive browser extension. Users often install it because it promises to enhance their Web browsing experience by improving the functionality of new tabs. However, it does not explicitly mention the exact improvement it makes. Instead of helping you, New Tab Explorer focuses on promoting a 3rd-party site by configuring it as your default new tab page. You can rest assured that this site is not an improvement compared to your usual new tab page. In fact, it may even end up making your browsing experience worse than before.
The website that New Tab Explorer promotes is a random low-quality search engine. It delivers results of poor quality, and it may also expose you to additional ads, pop-ups, and redirects. Users who have interacted with it report that the search feature also tends to promote sponsored results on top. Often, these might have nothing in common with your search query, rendering them completely useless.
Popular antivirus products identify New Tab Explorer as a Potentially Unwanted Program, or a PUP. While this application is not an immediate threat, it is certainly not welcome either. Removing it is not mandatory, but it might be the best course of action if you wish to restore your Web browser configuration. Users who do not ensure New Tab Explorer's full removal may be unable to switch back to their default new tab page. New Tab Explorer's monitors and modifies browser settings continuously, so removing it is the best way to proceed. We advise you to take care of this specific task by running an up-to-date anti-malware scanner.
