You should know that manual ways of removal that delete Versa Video from browsers are completely safe and you can use them not being afraid that you harm your computer. Also these methods are very effective, so you will get the wanted result and the browser add-on will be removed together will all its manifestations. It is also an easy method; it yields merely to the automatic method of removal. But occasionally, using this technique users notice that the PUP exists again in the browser and they need to find any other techniques to remove it.
But there is another manual removal instruction using which you should remove files and registry keys and values. This technique is secure in situation if you can perform it cautiously or let the expert follow it. In order to make this instruction more secure you should do the backup of the registry. You should keep in mind that only the itemized parts of the extension should be deleted and no one more otherwise your PC will not load. If you do not understand what registry key is and where it can be placed, then you should follow automatic technique in order not to damage the computer.

But not all of them are effective. The information about the effectiveness of these removal ways I illustrate in the table that is called ‘Removal methods statistics’ below. Speaking about the paid techniques of virus removal, I should mention the Computer Repair Shop Service and paid Antivirus program.
These methods are the most effective. In spite of the great difference in the price (Repair Shop service depends on the complexity of the issue and may cost up to $300, but paid antivirus costs up to $60) these methods 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 remove the virus like in an expensive computer repair shop.
