[QUOTE="BellaNove88, post: 474225, member: 48869"] UPDATE: I no longer have the pop-ups showing up on my browsers, but would like to have my system thoroughly checked before I consider my issue resolved. I disconnected my laptop from the Wi-Fi connection and proceeded to run malwarebytes a third time, but this time I included "rootkits" and conducted a custom system search that included Drive C and Recovery drive D. It found several more PUPs and I had them all deleted from my computer. I then reconnected to the internet using Chrome and cleared out all extensions (including all google default extensions). Next, I went into settings under "People" and disabled guest browsing and cleared the people and all of the data associated with the profiles. I also unmarked the box for "let anyone add a person to Chrome". Lastly, I did a reset to default settings that is located at the bottom of the settings page. Since then, I have not had any pop-ups or sudden page changes in Chrome or Microsoft Edge. [/QUOTE]
