Remove Google Chrome adware from your browser:

  1. Reset browser settings: Click the vertical ellipsis (⋮) in the upper right corner. Settings﹥Reset Settings﹥Restore settings to their original defaults﹥[Reset Settings].
  2. Remove unwanted browser extensions: Click the vertical ellipsis (⋮) in the upper right corner. Extensions﹥Manage Extensions. Find the unwanted extension(s) and click the Remove button. Only the “Google Docs Offline” extension is default. Anything else is custom added.


From the second screen shot it seems that the browser alerted you in time. No harm done, although the link had no business being there.
