Recently i download a software. on completion it installed some extra softwares which i didn't give permissions for. there was this issue where multiple command propmt windows would suddenly flash on the screen and disappear. i've managed to get rid of most of the stuff using malware bytes and a software called 'unhackme'. the issue that still persists is that my browser is highjacked by this search engine called 'Hotweb360'. plus i got a solution which said i had to right click on my browser shortcut and erase anything after the path of the installation. but my pc won't let me do that too and i get an error.attached below are pictures which indicate the unwanted text in the location and the search engine. picture1 : http://imageshack.com/a/img923/4044/ZzQ9Go.png

Solution
Did you go into the chrome control panel and see if an extension had been added sometimes you can disable the extension then you can remove it.
