    How do i get rid of this virus-like ad on Windows 10?


    This pops up constantly. I've been to Settings/System/Notifications. No "McAfee" or "McAfee and Norton" are there to toggle to "off." How do I kill it before it kills me?Also, there is nothing with the word "McAfee" in the list of apps to delete.As info, I have Spectrum's proprietary security package downloaded, installed and activated, so this McAfee thing has exceptionally bad manners.Thanks!

    :)

    What's the best way to get rid of the Zeus virus warning fake ad on Windows 10?

    I'm trying to help my mom get rid of the popup fake zeus virus ad on her pc. I had her download and run Microsoft Safety Scanner and it didn't find anything. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
