How to ger tid of searchpowerline scam ?

The scam has taken control over Windows Edge. I cant find any sign of it in the extension file. Many writers suggest that the virus is to find in that place
I will be happy if somebody tell me how to get rid of it. Pls write step by step so I can mannage to follow it.

I take it that you aren't trying to connect to that site  ?

If not first try clearing the Edge browser cache, cookies and restart Edge.
