After reinstalling google chrome, I restarted my computer for a second time. The searchnu tab is still not appearing, but I cannot change my homepage. I tried through the google wrench, and also the control panel. I ran a quick search through Malwarebytes before reading your reply. Here is the log. I will run a full scan and post again. Should I follow your next steps or wait on that?
