It has a pre-installed free VPN, quick access to ChatGPT, and a built-in torrent file search engine. It downloads music from VKontakte and SoundCloud, Yandex.Music.

- How do I download and install Ninja Browser on my computer?
Getting started with Ninja Browser is very easy! Click here to download the installation file and follow the instructions of the installer. The installation may take a few minutes, and once completed, Ninja Browser will launch automatically.
- I am concerned about my personal data. Does your program steal it?
All actions of our program are transparent, and you can track them yourself. We do not collect, store, or send users' personal data stored on computers to third parties. We do not need that. The number of Ninja Browser users has already exceeded 100 million, and such actions on our part would have long been known. Don't worry, everything is safe!
- How do I remove the program from my computer?
The program is removed in the standard way: 'Start' → 'All Programs' → 'Ninja Browser' → 'Remove Ninja Browser'.
Or the following path: 'Start' → 'Control Panel' → 'Add or Remove Programs' → 'Remove Ninja Browser'.
Removing the Ninja Browser shortcut from the desktop will not delete the program itself. We also do not recommend removing the program by deleting the 'Ninja Browser' folder from the 'Program Files' folder. This method will not completely remove the program. The only correct way to remove the Ninja Browser program is the method described above.
- Ninja Browser and antivirus
Some antivirus programs identify Ninja Browser as a potentially unwanted program (or PUA). We want to clarify some features of this detection.
So, why is Ninja Browser detected by antivirus programs and what does the phrase 'Potentially Unwanted Program' (PUA) mean?
On the antivirus page of Malwarebytes https://www.malwarebytes.com/pup, we see that PUA is a fairly broad category of software whose purpose is not necessarily malicious activity.
Among other things:
- They can download files (like Ninja Browser)
- They are distributed through partners or affiliate programs (like Ninja Browser)
- They are installed along with other applications (like Ninja Browser)
For user convenience, a small installer is first downloaded from our site, which, when launched, downloads the browser itself. However, this behavior can also be considered potentially harmful, although it is actually safe and convenient.
Thus, many programs that do not pose a real threat fall under this definition. For example, because they show ads within themselves or can download files, which is exactly what Ninja Browser does.
We are constantly trying to find contact with antivirus programs, but not all of them communicate properly with developers. Naturally, the warning from antivirus about danger raises questions among our users, which is why we decided to write this article, where we explained the situation with detections in detail.
As a result, it can be said that false positives or PUA detections are a common phenomenon faced by many developers. As an example, another well-known torrent downloading application also has many detections:
uTorrent

Getting rid of false positives from antivirus and problems when installing our program is very simple. All you need to do is add Ninja Browser to the exceptions list of your antivirus. If you cannot do this yourself, please write to us or use the instructions below.
