What is TheEasyWayPro?
TheEasyWayPro is a Chrome extension that is categorized as a potentially unwanted application. It means that this extension is not a malicious security threat, but it might be associated with various security issues. Therefore, it would be for the best to remove it from your browser. Also, if you did not intend to have TheEasyWayPro on-board, you will do yourself a favor by deleting it from your system and running a full PC scan with a reliable security tool: the chances are that you have many other unwanted programs on-board, so the sooner you delete them, the better.
Where does TheEasyWayPro come from?
When we deal with browser extensions, we always emphasize that they are not stealthy. It means that they do not hide their presence, and they always ask for your permission to be added to your browser. As such, we cannot say that TheEasyWayPro and other similar apps are malicious infections. Nevertheless, it might indulge in rather shady tactics to reach its target systems.
For one, we know that TheEasyWayPro can be found on the Chrome Web Store. You can read more about this extension there and decide whether you want it or not. However, our research suggests that TheEasyWayPro can also spread through pop-ups and fake download buttons. For example, if you use a file storage website that relies on third-party advertising to remain online, you might encounter a lot of fake download buttons on that site before you even find the actual one you need.
Users, who are not careful about it, might end up downloading TheEasyWayPro and many other unnecessary apps on their systems. Therefore, you have to be attentive when you download freeware from file-sharing sites. If you are not careful, many unwanted programs could enter your system thus changing your browser’s settings.
What does TheEasyWayPro do?
Since TheEasyWayPro is a browser extension, it clearly modifies your browser’s settings. This modification doesn’t happen behind your back though. Extensions like TheEasyWayPro will definitely inform you about the changes. So when you add the app to your browser, it will present you with the following information:
Site access
This extension can read and change your data on sites. You can control which sites the extension can access.Automatically allow access on the following sites
*://*.apiprcy.com/*
*://*.srchbar.com/*
*://*.theeasywaypro.com/*
The extension also gets permissions to read your browsing history, change your search settings to srchbar.com, and manage your apps, extensions, and themes. When we look at what this extension can do, we can see that TheEasyWayPro can get its virtual hands on a lot of things. And the question is whether it’s really worth it?
According to the official promotional taglines, TheEasyWayPro “allows you to quickly search for places, get directions and see live maps, without leaving your browser.” But is that really something that you do on your computer nowadays? We can bet that you use your smartphone apps to navigate the roads and search for places. Therefore, the question is whether this extension is really necessary.
What’s more, seeing how it allows access on several websites, it is very likely that TheEasyWayPro can be used to promote commercial content. While this kind of practice is nothing special, it COULD be exploited by malevolent third parties, and you could end up getting exposed to corrupted third-party content. Therefore, if you care about your safety and security, make sure that you do not use potentially unwanted applications that do not bring any additional value to your overall web browsing experience.

Hence, you should scan your system with a licensed security tool that will help you find all the potentially harmful or unnecessary files.
When you are sure that your computer is safe and clean again, review your web browsing habits so that you could avoid similar apps in the future.
