It is a nasty virus which is in your system and it is not easy to get rid of the same. First of all you are having Windows Defender only as a antivirus. You must install some good one. Install Malwarebytes in your pc and then boot your system safe mode. Run a full system scan and then check back. That will be enough to resolve the issue. You can try out different type of antivirus to find out which one is the most efficient one and removes the virus.

Redirection virus is easy to remove. You just have to find the right tool. I think Malwarebytes is enough to resolve the problem. It is right that you have to scan your pc in safe mode and that is only going to help. Without that you wont be able to get rid of that virus. Re-installing browsers will also help.
