When I click on a new tab, it no longer shows the tiles. Instead, it opens a new search screen with a "My Converter" option. I cannot find a the cogwheel icon that will allow me to include suggested sites. I am attaching a screenshot of what I see when I open a new tab. Any ideas for how to get my tiles back? Thanks so much!

Hi    !

That hmyquickconverter.com is a browserhijacker, that you will of course want to get rid off.

Go to the 3-bar menu => Addons => Extensions and look for any unfamiliar or suspicious looking extensions, like e.g.:

SafeSearch Incognito SearchAssist Incognito

When you find any :   remove them.

Also look in : 3-bar menu (or 'Tools') => Options => Advanced => Network tab => Under : 'Offline Web Content and User Data'

However :   most malware will be 'hiding' somewhere , so let's run malware scans :

Further information can be found in this article :

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners.
They all work differently   -   what one program doesn't pick up, the other might.
