There is adware installed on your Mac

3. Check for and remove adware.
Run the latest release of Malwarebytes for Mac to remove malware/adware, if installed on your Mac.
For instructions: Install Malwarebytes for Mac v4 Uninstall Malwarebytes for Mac
Click the “Scan Now” button. Once done, quit Malwarebytes for Mac.
Restart the computer and relaunch Safari holding the shift key down.

6. Restart your Mac. Relaunch Safari holding the Shift key down.
If Safari's home page is stuck
In some cases, after being changed by adware or malware, Safari's home page can become stuck. You will be able to edit the Homepage field in Safari's preferences, but the change will not stick. This appears to be a bug, and there is an odd workaround. Try this:
1. In Safari, choose Preferences from the Safari menu.
2. In the window that opens, click the General icon (if necessary)
3. Enter your desired home page in the "Homepage" field, but DO NOT press return!
4. At the top of the window, click any of the other icons (eg, Tabs, AutoFill, etc).
5. You may see a prompt asking for confirmation for changing the home page. If so, confirm.
6. Switch back to the General page and check to make sure the home page has been changed.

Malwarebytes for Mac is an adware removal app.
I have recommended this app for years and it has removed malware successfully.
If you don't want to use it, don't use it.
I have posted relevant articles from Apple support.
I'm not sure that installing one dubious software to remove another is the right solution of the problem
ok, Thanks, i will try
Absolute great help & advice by dominic23.
Nothing dubious about MWB. :)
And it's free...
In "profiles" the profile appears itself and changes the browser settings
