Describe the malware. How do you know of it's existence? How long have you known of it? etc...

Trying to tell you what to do with the information you've given me is like a doctor trying to diagnose a patient over the phone, but the patient won't give any information other than 'I feel ill'.

I figured it out. I started my computer in safe mode then ran separate scans for both my hdd and ssd and I found the fucker. Basically how i knew about it was because it was redirecting my browser to add pages or pages I didnt click on and also wouldnt let me install extensions on chrome.

Restart in safe mode back to before you got it if you remember when you got it.
