What is, "PKInstallSandbox.hzuu.Jg"?

Every time I try to clean my MacBook I get the message that "PKInstallSandbox.hzuu.Jg" can't be removed because it is running in the background. When I do a search on Yahoo, Google and Safari nothing is found to identify this PKInstallSandbox.hzuu.Jg and this is very perplexing. My computer is running slowly and wonder if this may be the root of the problem. Still, I can't uninstall because I can't find it in Finder when I do a search; again no matches and nothing is found.

MacBook Pro 13", 10.12

I tried with CCleaner but it says that it's currently open and can't remove. When I search for it in Finder it's not there? I have been cautioned not to use MalwareBytes because it installs adware? BTW...Thank you for responding so quickly. This PKInstallSandbox.hzuu.Jg has been bothering me for sometime. If it is always running in the background could this be causing my computer to be slow?
