Ps. Description for other people will come in future:

Follow the guide linked from @kevinf80, but if you have more of 1 Google Chrome account, you have to do every step of the guide for every account before do the Malwarebyte scan.

Thanks for the update, continue:

Right click on FRST here: C:\Users\ilari\Downloads\FRST64.exe and rename uninstall.exe when complete right click on uninstall.exe and select "Run as Administrator" If you do not see the .exe appended that is because file extensions are hidden, in that case just rename FRST64 to uninstall That action will remove FRST and all created files and folders...
