    Go into Settings > Apps > Apps & Features and look for AutoIt in the list, highlight to Uninstall it.

    If not there then see here other ways to find and remove it:

    https://superuser.com/questions/971233/autoit-e...

    Run a full scan with the most powerful on-demand free scanner Malwarebytes:

    https://www.malwarebytes.com/mwb-download/. In the Scan Settings first set it to include scanning for Rootkits.

    Clean up anything found, restart PC and then run again until it comes up clean.

    Check for any remainders in Settings > Apps > Apps & Features, and also in each of your browser's Extensions, Home Page settings, Search service or Add-On's as shown here: https://community.box.com/t5/How-to-Guides-for-...

    Then check for damaged System Files: https://www.lifewire.com/how-to-use-sfc-scannow...

    If it cannot repair them see Step 10 here to continue: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wiki...

    If you want to keep Malwarebytes as an on-demand scanner then you can turn off its Real Time trial version in it's Settings > Account Details tab.

    I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and let us know how it goes. I will keep working with you until it's resolved.
