You dun got adware. Install and run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, for starters. You may need more tools to fully kill it.

I would do this too. It was probably a chrome extension you installed accidentally. This stuff usually gets installed when installing normal things which have hidden agreements of installing random stuff you want to uncheck like the example image below.

It's still appearing as an addon and I've tried numerous tools to destroy it. This damn adware is some persistent ????

Pivot Stick Figure Animator latest beta version and a trainer for Just Cause 3. I've deleted the trainer (I've had a history of trainers that mess up stuff). I think the trainer might be the cause because I seriously doubt pivot stick figure would put adware on my computer.

The specific adware seems to be called discovery app from what I can see in the image.
This might be useful, or google some more about it.

I have just removed it. It says it wasn't installed from the chrome Webb store so it must've been from a hidden agreement. Thanks for the help!

This type of adware is really annoying. It is NOT an extension. Instead, it is a script of modification file that run every time you start your browser or computer. If you are a power user, I suggest you check with Process Explorer for any suspicious processes. Note their names (and location if possible) then kill them. After that find those files and delete them from your computer. You may also have to uninstall some suspicious program through Control Panel.
Or you can simply download and run an adware remover tool or antivirus program.

image This is happening EVERYWHERE on google chrome, thankfully ublock is blocking the actual ad content, but everytime I click on ANYTHING, I get pop-ups. Firefox is fine, MS Edge is fine, what has happened to my chrome??
EDIT: NOW ITS HAPPENING ON ALL BROWSERS AND EVEN IN INCOGNITO! I'm DOOMED!!!!!
EDIT2: I have damaged the adware, and it now is only working in Chrome. That's some progress, I guess.
