Hi
I have the exact same problem. I have run through the many steps as suggested over and over again (un-install and re-install) PLUS I have used the 'remove chrome policy tool'. I'm able to remove the files that are infected shortly. Have put them in the trash bin AND emptied it!! Everything seems fine - no 'Managed by your organisation' and able to choose the search engine I want. UNTILL I restart my computer - them it's back to starting point. Conclusion?? There must be some hidden file somewhere on my computer that I can't/don't see. Do you have any suggestions?

The Windows features on your computer are restricted by some Windows Policies. This could be done by registry tweaks, GPO (gpedit.msc), or via some security applications.

I had problems with that message in the past. Do you use O&O Shutup10 or any similar programs that change your Windows settings for privacy? If you do, just undo whatever changes you've made, restart and see if that fixes it.

(Although, for me, it was in Windows itself that I was getting that problem, I think)

I have one but you're not gonna like it
Since as you said on the other thread the (assuming there is one and it's not something else) malware is still there then you have only one choice, do a clean install of your macOS.
