Of these, are there any that I could instruct him to delete? I did not want to do it myself prior to asking the Apple community. Please let me know, thank you in advance!

First start up in Safe Mode

Start up your Mac in safe mode - Apple Support

Then delete everything that does not contain:

• microsoft
• google

Restart your computer again and you should not have the issue anymore.

At least the 3 AssistiveRecord plists, & restart.

All the com. & net.big long hex numbers are suspicious.
