I was triying to download something and i downloaded a virus i really regret it .. so what do i do virus slowed down my laptop way to much also there is some weird app appearing sometimes. I somehow opened google search engine was changed i couldnt change it back and it also said that mychrome was controlled by a managment. It didnt day that before. Any suggestions? Its late now and i cant take it to ITs, i would prefer solving it by myself. I turned on safe mode and did a disk cleanup. Please help. :(

disk cleanup isn't gonna do anything
really the only effective thing in this case is to install an anti-virus if you haven't already and run it.
in a worse case scenario, do these things listed above
Backup your important files (only) and do a full reset of your pc. If that doesn't work try getting a new hard drive.
Factory Reset

You might have installed a RAT on your computer. If I were you I would do a full wipe on your hard drive and reinstall windows(If your planning on doing a full wipe make sure you get Norton Ghost program to make a safe image pm me for more details)

Probably meaning that you have a extension on chrome like a VPN or such.

If you can, boot it with safe mode with networking.

1.Disconnect from your internet
2. backup the files
3. run an antivirus scan
4. run an Anti-malware scan
5. restart your computer if you still have the virus
6. format your pc :(
