How to remove TuneUp Pro?

msi A6200

Windows 10

I am cleaning up someone else's computer (lots of malware) but the one app I cannot get to uninstall is TuneUp Pro.  It is not listed in the Add/ Remove Programs category in Control Panel > Uninstall.  I have tried manually deleting all of it's entries in the Registry using regedit, but it just reappears (maybe I'm missing a step or some)  I have downloaded the MS Fixit utility and it is not listed, so I clicked "Not Listed," then it asks for a product key, which I don't think there is one, or at least I don't know how to find it.  I also tried using CCleaner but it does not list it under programs to uninstall.

How do I get rid of this malware?

Presume you do not see a “suspicious” browser extension?

 

Anything in Startup you need to disable?

 

Can you identify the offending file/entry using Task Manager?

 

And you’ve emptied temporary internet files, restarted and if necessary reset all browsers?
