I don't know why. but the PUP.optional.22ChromeEXT is gone but PUP.Optional.Legacy out of nowhere is found when I scan using Adwcleaner 

and I dunno why but my pc is running slower than before, I hope it's not the effect of this new PUP. I already done the chrome reset and everything but I don't know what to do next

I hope that I don't have to reinstall windows because I'm too lazy to do the backup
