Remove Ads: not by this side - it is that simple

As soon as you detect "not by this side" adware while using your browser, you should remove it immediately. The term adware refers to all the programs that cause your computer system to show you unwanted advertisements.

How to remove adware

You can easily infiltrate adware into your system by installing programs or another software. In the process, without you noticing it, the settings of your browser are changed.

• To proceed manually, open the Control Panel and click on the "Programs" section. You should now sort all listed programs by the date of installation. Now you have an overview and you can remove all accesses that you did not install independently.
• Even though the manual approach is very effective, there may still be remnants of the programs on your PC. That is why it can be helpful to use an adware cleaner. There is a wide range of free programs to choose from.
• Although you have only made manual changes to your PC, you should still use your security program and run a virus check. This way, you will ensure more security on your device.

Can this be done more simply?

Generally, there is the option of using appropriate firewalls and security software to ensure that only minimal adware is installed on your PC. You can only achieve 100% security by not downloading and installing anything. However, since downloading programs is more often cheaper, you should rather invest in good security software.
