I want to uninstall the Moz SEO toolbar. How do I do this?

[Bonnie76]

I installed the Moz toolbar and I don't understand it and it covers up important parts of websites and makes them inaccessible. I want to get it off my computer. I installed it in chrome. How do I get it off?

In your chrome browser, there is a little "hamburger menu" on the top right (three horizontal lines, stacked).

Click that, go to tools > extensions and you should be able to delete it there.

ps- What do you find that it covers up?

LindaLV is right. Here are some screenshots to help you out.

1. Expand the hamburger menu. Then navigate to Tools > Extensions (#1 attachment)

2. Either disable or delete the Moz toolbar. (#2 attachment)

That said, I recommend leaving it installed. I don't use it terribly often, but then there are those times that it comes in really helpful. So for most of my browsing, I leave it disabled. If you find it's covering up content while you're browsing, you can just click the toolbar icon to disable it and make it inactive. That's how I browse most of the time. (#3 attachment)

I actually ended up installing it on my home computer as well as my work computer--I find that I have come to rely on it as a quick-and-dirty gauge of the quality of the website I am visiting...

Hi Bonnie, Linda and Justin are absolutely right. You can follow their instructions to uninstall the toolbar permanently.

If, however, you'd like to be able to temporarily disable it, you can toggle it on and off using a keyboard shortcut: Cmd + Option + Control + M on OSX, Shift + Ctrl + Alt + M on Windows. You can also toggle it on and off by clicking on it's bookmark icon.
