Can i use Antivirus to remove malware or do i need
Malwarebytes for that?

I am using Bitdefender Total Security.
Also, do i need any other special antiviruses to protect
my computer?

Whenever i use chrome nothing loads after 10 seconds
and my whole computer freezes.. ideas?
I think it's because parts of the files for Chrome
got corrupted when my PC shut down unexpectedly
so I think i'd need to uninstall it.

Thanks.

Note: Solved guys. I re installed my chrome and it worked.
It was corrupt which caused my pc to freeze.

Thanks for the helpful answers ill try malwarebytes!.

You can try scanning with MalwareBytes. Its is surely powerful for threats.

I use BitDefender as well (right now at least, testing it out)... I'd recommend you have Malwarebytes installed and just use the free version as a secondary scanner. Think of it this way, if something DID slip by your AntiVirus then it's nice to have something like MWB to be a secondary defense/scanning agent to verify your systems clean.

Now for the chrome! Run these programs to see if they will help clean up your chrome for any injections or poor quality/adware softwares...
Junkware Removal Tool (JRT)
AdwCleaner (Click on Delete button when program loads)

Please update the post/thread if you have any further issues, questions or if this has been resolved. Thank you.

I would definitely recommend having Malwarebytes alongside an anti-virus.

I have Avast AV running on my computer, however, I have a copy of MalwareBytes on my computer just in case it's needed. I mainly use Avast for real-time because of the shields it has. If I want to scan, I use Malwarebytes.

This is what I do. Malwarebytes is a very good scanner but when not using it I use Avast.
