SearchRange

The SearchRange application is a dubious utility that targets Mac computers. It would appear that this shady application is distributed via misleading advertisements, fraudulent application downloads and updates, freeware bundles and other tricks.

The goal of the SearchRange application is not to enhance your browsing quality, despite its claims. The only purpose of this dodgy utility is to alter the settings of your Web browser. The SearchRange application will change your default new tab page and your search engine. This dodgy application works in cooperation with low-quality websites to help them generate traffic and revenue. The sites associated with the SearchRange application activity are not harmful, but this does not mean that they will provide you with high-quality service.

The SearchRange tool is a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) that you are better off uninstalling from your Mac. Since the dodgy application sets up a new ‘Device Profile’ alongside a new ‘Launch Daemon,’ removing it manually may be challenging. This is why you should consider using a reputable anti-virus solution to wipe the SearchRange PUP from your Mac.
