Threat detected every time i open Google Chrome

bpat74

Hello, in the past few days, every time i open Chrome, a pop up message is displayed saying that threat has been detected. What exactly is this and why does it keep poping up? Here is the exact message:
The file C:\Users\vpate\AppData\Local\Temp\6132_1896534160\js\background\Media\FaceBook.js has been detected as infected. The threat has been successfully blocked, your device is safe
and here is another message:
The file C:\Users\vpate\AppData\Local\Temp\scoped_dir15780_118784280\CRX_INSTALL\js\background\Media\FaceBook.js has been detected as infected. The threat has been successfully blocked, your device is safe
That does not happen when i open firefox or edge. Only in Google Chrome.
Thank you in advance.
