Yeah, you’ve gotten scammed. You’ve seemingly loaded some malware. It’s trying to mess around with your Catalina install, and Catalina is blocking the modifications.
Please read the following linked posting, and then post the screen shots of the three requested folder areas back here, as those screen shots will usually show what happened here. (How this dreck works and what names it chooses for itself are generated automatically and randomly and it all changes continuously to evade detection.)

I can’t see the searchdaemons at all there’s nothing there. I hope I can fix it somehow
Again, the filenames and the construction of the junk will vary to make identification and removal more difficult.
Please post the three requested screen shots.
Thank you! It went away now.
Great news Daniel, take care my friend. :)
