What Is Major Sector?
Major Sector is a browser extension that may get installed on a Macbook after a user installs a cracked application or runs a file downloaded from an untrustworthy source. Major Sector changes the default search engine on Google Chrome resulting in users’ searches getting redirected through one or several sites to Yahoo Search. Extensions that alter browsers’ default search engine or homepage are called browser hijackers. Their main purpose is redirecting more traffic to promoted sites to generate more ad revenue for those. Some extensions also collect data from browsers (like browsing history or search history) and show ads based on users’ interests. You may follow this step-by-step guide to remove Major Sector extension from your Mac and get rid of the search redirect it causes.
