Malware Removal:

Boot your Mac in Safe Mode, and try performing this while booted into that. In Safe Mode, login items do not open at login, certain System Preferences are set aside, and damaged system files (i.e. caches) are fixed wail logged into it.
I am actually using Mac OS Montery Version 12.5
