  1. Microsoft and Windows issues


    I have been having an issue with my computer since I received an email from Microsoft saying my account was accessed from a different country. I have changed my password, but at this point in time, I am unable to run Windows Defender, Windows Firewall, and Avast. I also have a weird issue with Microsoft Word in which I can’t open any documents not created on my computer. I do online school and often have to read others’ Word documents but when I download them, Word cannot open them. I can open my own word documents which I have created just fine though. I’m not sure of its related but I also unable to access the internet through Google Chrome, but was able to access it fine through Avast Secure Browser.

    I had logged into my microsoft account via the email that I got about my account being accessed, so I am worried I have a virus or malware. Has anyone experienced something similar?

    At this point in time, if i restart my computer it blue screens over an over again. I am only able to be into my computer now via safemode. I am currently backing up my files in case a wipe is my only aolution.

    :)

  2. Edge Search Does Not Permit Change of Region


    I got these suggestions from the Microsoft Community forum.No. 1 worked for me:

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community. I am glad to assist you on this.
    We have reproduce the issue here and we are able to access non-regional search for google using Microsoft Edge.
    I would suggest you to try the below steps and check if it helps.
    Step 1:
    Clear browsing data option of Microsoft Edge and check if you face the issue. To do so perform the steps below.

    1. Click on the More actions icon next to the feedback icon present on top right corner of the Project Spartan homepage.
    2. Select Settings and click on Choose what to clear.
    3. Check the boxes Browsing history, Cookies and saved website data and Cached data and files and click on Clear.
    Step 2:
    I suggest you to create a new user account and check if the issue occurs.

    1. Go to Settings.
    2. Choose Accounts and then select Family and other users.
    3. Select add someone else on this PC.
    4. Enter a user name and hit next.
    5. Click on Finish.
    6. Sign out from the current Account and Log into the new account.
    Step 3:
    It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    Microsoft Internet Explorer renamed to Windows Internet Explorer ?

    Microsoft and Windows issues wie1.png


    Since version 7 of the world`s most popular web browser - Microsoft Internet Explorer was silently renamed to Windows Internet Explorer.Such a step from Microsoft is not a surprise since Internet Explorer is part of the Windows operation system for a long time.Obviously Microsoft corp. wants to state that Internet Explorer is already considered as a part of Windows and not as an external browser (remember the IE and WMP law issues last year!?).
