First restart the Mac in Safe Mode:

Start up your Mac in safe mode - Apple Support


Then post a screenshot of these 3 folders by going to Finder > Go > Go to Folder and paste each of these locations there. Don't forget the "~" character in the last one.

/Library/LaunchDaemons

/Library/LaunchAgents

~/Library/LaunchAgents
