After installing a video downloader program last week, my laptop has been infected with tons of adware. MalwareBytes picked up a lot of stuff, but I have noticed the PriceChop ads remain. Even after deleting the extensions in chrome, they come right back. I also noticed ads from JollyWallet. I uploaded all of the requested logs, including the ZOEK-RESULTS log.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.
