What is a browser extension?

Extensions are like mini apps that you can add to your browser. They can do cool stuff with the websites you visit, the browser settings, and the browser look. For example, an extension can give you a new button on your toolbar, change how a website looks, or stop annoying pop-ups from showing up.

You usually get extensions from the official web store of your browser, like Chrome Web Store, Firefox Add-ons, or Microsoft Edge Add-ons. Getting extensions from other places can be risky or cause problems. That’s why you might want to get rid of them. Here, you’ll find step-by-step guides on how to delete extensions for different browsers.
