Windows 10: How to contact Microsoft support for Remote Assistance

How can you contact Mircosoft Technical Suppprt to communicate with a live person to obtain remote technical support for user account and data recovery that has been deleted via automatic Windows 10 update? There is no documentation online that actually works and phone numbers simply guide you to the website which is not helpful.

Quick Assist, Remote Assist and Remote Desktop and RemoteApp

Here's an answer I got from a Microsoft MVP (this is not microsoft staff but instead a microsoft certification program)

 

Quick Assist, Remote Assist and Remote Desktop and RemoteApp

What's the diference between Quick Assist, Remote Assist. Remote Desktop and RemoteApp?
Microsoft offers 4 different ways for the user to share their screen in order to receive technical support from someone more knowledgable. Yes four. I'm using Windows 10 20H2

 

Deleting contacts from Windows 10


When you say Windows Mail Live are you referring to Mail app or Windows Live Mail?

I suggest you to try the steps provided below and check if it helps.

• Open Windows Live Mail.
• Press Ctrl + 3 using your keyboard. Right-click on the contact to delete it if it is a single contact.
• Highlight all contacts by pressing Ctrl + A.
• Click Delete located on the Ribbon bar.
• Click OK when you see the message These contacts will also be deleted from Hotmail, Messenger, and other Windows Live services.

After following the steps above, all your contacts that you have manually added to your account will be deleted however, contacts coming from third-party sites such as Facebook will not be deleted unless you remove Facebook from your account.

For Mail app:

Open People app then delete the contact.
