Windows 10: Think I got hacked. Dont know what to do

At least twice a week for like 3 weeks, this same thing keeps happening:this exact thing"88acece4-2aa3-4e27-bdba-a7f744d39ac7" was getting typed up automatically on my search bar and searched -the tabs switched automatically to browser settings and the same thing was written in the settings search bar -both get deleted same process happens and sometimes even in front of me. I thought the broswer was the issue Brave browser so i switched to Opera browser and the same thing happened. So im pretty sure i got hacked. Speed on my laptop is also realllyy slow 10-15 mbps vs 300-400 mbps on my phon

Email Hacked

Hello Greg

thank you for your response and the great information you provided.

I use two step authentication for my email account and all important web sites. I also use the full version of Malwarebytes to protect my computer.

But I will do the scans you suggested AdwCleaner and Limewire.com and let you know the results.

I am worried though that the webcam installed on my laptop could have been hacked. I never use it and forgot about it, so never disabled it.

Any suggestions as to find if it was actually hacked?

thank you

mike
