First of all, I was unaware of having an extension. Now, how do I get rid of this?

I received a warning window from Apple about Malware extension in my laptop. Of course, I was unaware of the extension and that it might effect my operating system. Do any of you smart computer wiz please tell me how to remove it. I recalled downloading malware in the event of getting some unwanted stuff in my laptop. Sure appreciate you helping this grandma.

How to turn off or uninstall extensions

Choose Safari > Preferences, then click Extensions.

  • To turn off an extension, deselect its checkbox.

If you still can't remove it, you might want to:
