Genieo icon showing up under "users and groups"

Some time ago I removed all suspicious files from the following folders:

~/Library/LaunchAgents

/Library/LaunchAgents/

/Library/LaunchDaemons/

Application support

PrivilegedHelperTools

and all the binaries that the .plist files were referring to which removed all adware and I haven't had problems with adware since then.

But now I see that I haven't removed all of it since Genieo is showing up under the "users and groups" preferences under system preferences. Someone who knows where a Genieo file responsible for this could be located or knows an atypical place where adware files could be stored? Could they be hiding as adobe-files?

The "Login Items" are only showed in the admin user account and not the standard user account.

I have looked twice for all the different files that this site tells one to remove but found none of them, so none of them are causing the problem; https://www.thesafemac.com/arg-genieo/

This is how it looks:

Select the Genio entry under Item (not the checkbox under Hide) and then click the [—] (minus) button.

Also, look for a Genio app anywhere on your Mac. It might be in Applications, or it may no longer exist at all.

That should be all that is necessary.
