If you're on Windows 10 type in the search bar default webbrowser a setting will come up and you can change your browser in there.

To change your browser open "Default app settings" and go to "Set default by app" where you should see your browser.

I'd advise to do a virus scan with a reputable program such as Malwarebytes from the official website if there is an program you didn't install on your PC.
