I have this adware/malware that keeps opening new browsers both on Google chrome and Mozilla Firefox browsers. I have tried all sorts of things online but to know avail.

I also noticed it keeps installing some nasty extensions on chrome and names them google docs

I have uploaded files from the scan I performed with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and AdwCleaner.

Please I forgot to mention that it not only infected my office PC but also my PC at home. And am sure it did that via Google chrome, since I usually login via chrome to maintain access to my online bags & baggage.
