In reply to K_D_Queen. You may do it only if you are facing problems connecting to the internet or to some websites; else no need to.

After you do ‘ipconfig /flushdns’, don’t forget to clear the cache in your browser to see the effect of any DNS resolver changes, such as edits of your local HOSTS file. Also, note that you can always view the contents of the local DNS cache using command ‘ipconfig /displaydns > dns.txt’. The list will be in file dns.txt in the current folder.

You may have to run multiple scans.

Download and run RKill: https://www.thewindowsclub.com/kill-persistent-malware-processes-before-running-your-security-software

Then download and run Zemana Portable: https://www.thewindowsclub.com/zemana-antimalware-free-review

Then run AdwCleaner too: https://www.thewindowsclub.com/adwcleaner-review-download

Restart your PC and now if need be reset your browsers and check the addons.
