    With your Lock Screen, hitting that Open option in your picture will take you there.
    But it sounds like that wasn’t part of the issue after all. Wouldn’t hurt to still look, you have come this far.

    As to how you got there (my process or Peter’s) doesn’t matter - you’ll find with most things related to computers, there are usually more than 1 way to skin the cat.

    With browser extensions, my main two go-to ones are uBlock Origin and Disconnect.

        That is where you are going wrong.
        These instructions are for Teamviewer program.
        You were using Teamviewer Quicksupport qhich does not install.
        Deleting the remnants of the file should have fixed everthing.
        No need to worry about the browser now.

        Is everything ok now?

            Bruce,
            I have to admit, I had to look up what uBlock Original and Disconnect where and what they did, having said that I do have Bitdefender install on my computer with a VPN.
            I’m assuming they offer the same sort of protection.

            Peter,
            I’ve had a look at TeamViewer and TeamViewer Quick Support and can now see the difference between the two, thank you for pointing it out to me.
            It explains why I could not see it in the Add and Remove listing and yes everything appears to be working ok now.

            Thank you both again for you help
