How to remove TinyWallet (Virus Removal Guide)
This TinyWallet removal guide will help you remove the TinyWallet virus and uninstall malware from Windows to get rid of unwanted ads by TinyWallet on Chrome, Firefox, and Internet Explorer.
What is TinyWallet?
TinyWallet (Tiny Wallet) is an advertisement-supported potentially unwanted program (PUP) that displays pop-up advertisements on Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Microsoft Internet Explorer by attaching itself and third-party platforms as a browser add-on, extension, and helper object (BHO) with or without user consent.
Once TinyWallet adware gets onto a computer and attaches to affected internet browser it will access, collect, and change user browser activity, history, bookmarks, themes, homepages, default search engines, and more in order to generate targeted advertisements that it feels are relevant to the internet user’s complete browsing activities or cause unwanted browser redirects and start-ups to questionable search engines.
This potentially unwanted program, sometimes referred to as the TinyWallet virus; though, not technically a computer virus may also bundle with third-party unwanted programs, malware, and malicious traces such as non-beneficial optimization software like PC Speed Clean.
Users are often given the opportunity to decline or accept an offer to install this adware; However, the program will usually always install if the user declines the offer. This program uses unethical marketing practices to make it’s way onto a computer system and internet browser.
If you are experiencing ads by TinyWallet on Chrome, Firefox, or Internet Explorer while browsing the internet, it is highly likely that additional items are also installed and will also need to be removed to stop unwanted advertisements and redirects from occuring.
