Google Chrome will warn users about malicious browser extensions

Google will start warning users about potentially dangerous extensions they have installed on its Chrome browser, the company announced in a recent blog post.

From Chrome version 117, Google will actively highlight when an installed extension is no longer in the Chrome Web Store through its Safety check feature.
 
Chrome suddenly displaying following message when searching anything. I have tried clearing history and all settings, even restoring to default. No such issues when opening saved bookmarks
