Manual and Automatic Removal Methods?

Manual removal method that you can execute to delete Bronze Aid from browsers are secure and not so complicated as you might think. Perhaps, only automatic method is easier. These instructions are very powerful because the browser vendors worry about your right to add or remove any browser add-ons. The method will let you to delete all the unwanted browser extensions and you will not be displayed its popping-up windows any more. But at times, using this way of removal users detect that the PUP returns to the browser and they have to fulfill any other techniques to uninstall it.

Nevertheless manual technique that give instructions to remove the files, folders and registry entries is the most dangerous one. If you risk to perform this way of removal, in this case you should keep in mind just one ordinary principle: do not forget to create the backup of the registry. Also the removal should be carried out just by the user that realizes what and why he has to remove.In the situation if you will eliminate several files or registry keys that do not belong to Bronze Aid, then your system will not start up next time.

But not all of them are effective. The information about the effectiveness of these uninstall techniques I illustrate in the table that is called ‘Removal methods statistics’, you can see it below. Speaking about the paid techniques of virus removal, I should list the Computer Repair Shop Service and paid Antivirus program.

These methods are the most efficient. In spite of the great distinction in the price (Repair Shop service depends on the complexity of the problem and may cost up to $300, but paid antivirus costs up to $60) these removal techniques are almost equal in the effectiveness and in the results. I should also say that paid antiviruses always has support service (often for free) that will solve your problem like in an expensive computer repair shop.
