  1. Genuine Microsoft Number?


    Hello,


    I was wondering if anyone could help me.


    I was getting help for my PC, and I clicked through the Get Help app, and it said that Microsoft was currently having a backlog, so I selected the option "call me back".


    So, a few minutes later, I get a call from + 4 4 0 3 4 4 8 0 0 2 4 0 0, and I press 1 to connect my call. A person connects on the line, definitely from North America, and we go through the issue that I am having. So, they asked for my email address, which I thought was a bit weird because I have a Microsoft Account, and they would know it, and I get an email from m s f t f o r t [at] microsoft.com. Which says:


    Microsoft Support requires your authorization to access accountinformation. Please share this verification code with the supportrepresentative you are working with.

    Support verification code: [**REMOVED FOR PRIVACY**]

    Viewthis support article for more information about why you are seeing thisemail.

    Thanks,


    Microsoft Support



    So, then they tell me that I will be connected to a technician, and gave me a reference number. Please let me know if you need it or not.

    But after 1 minute of silence, the automated voice that I was greeted with at the start told me that it was out of business hours. I looked at the clock, and it said 9:02 pm, so I don't know if I was connected to a different country with Microsoft using the UK number for standard landline charges, and the service had closed in that time zone, or it's not a genuine call. If that is the case, what should I do?

    :)

    Windows 7 not genuine problem

    It seems like that's an OEM windows copy, it will do that the every time you reinstall the OS. If you have the key, next time you see the "not genuine windows copy" click it and choose to activate by phone, everything else is pretty straight forward as it explains step-by-step. If it doesn't work, then its highly likely that you got a Pirate copy.
