    First step would be to clean a Malwarebytes in safe mode.
    Second step would be to type msconfig in run uncheck startup programs which you don't need running upon logging in.
    Third step wold be to run wise-cleaner to clean and optimize the laptop.

    Try the steps above before doing anything major.

    You;d do a fresh install quicker than you'd do all that and it WILL solve the problem.
