    Whenever I plug in my Laptop's charger, I start getting "virus threat" alert from windows defender. I have scanned the system and I've cleared my detection history several times but this problem still persist. It only happens when my charger is plugged in

    Windows 11 Home to Pro upgrade

    Want to upgrade 11 Home to 11 Pro. Tried download, but apparently files transferred were for 11 Enterprise. This will not activate; error is "invalid digital license or product key". This is on a new Surface. How to proceed?

    Can withdraw/delete this. The suggestion to downgrade - listed below - with a 'fake' windows 10 key works.

    Fake Virus Alert Popups with Edge browser

    Check that the tab it starts with is unpinned. When that site opens click the lock icon in address bar and block notifications. Just some suggestions.

    Fake Virus Alert Popups with Edge browser

    Sorry mate. Ive just been rereading all the posts in this thread and Ive just realised that I must have misread your advice last week. You were suggesting closing from Tab at the top of the Edge browser screen and not the close box on the Fake Virus Alert window..sorry for my confusion! Also Ive now seen that you can right click on any of the other open Tabs at the very top of the Edge screen and I see there are two other options- Close other Tabs and Close Tabs to the right. Im wondering if your suggestion of closing the Fake Virus Alert from its Tab by clicking on its X or any of these options might do exactly the same thing as closing down the Edge process using Task Manager achieves.
    The main thing is that you aren't supposed to click on any of the boxes in the Fake Popup window when it appears as doing so can activate malware but you still have to completely close its window down somehow.
