    Why does my computer spam dashes?


    Not sure if this belongs here but every time I log into my computer and try to type something, it spams dashes but only the first time I type once I log in. I don't have any antivirus software but I did do the deep scan with Windows Defender and nothing came up. What do I do? By the way, I know nothing about computers.

    Spam Emails for pop3

    Hi,

    Thank you for the reply.


    • Which email address is configured in the Mail app?

    If you have Outlook.com configured then you may refer to the suggestions provided by “Dhenz S” from this thread to check if that helps.

    How to block spam emails in Outlook.com?

    You need to look at the “View installed Updates” screen to see the list of recently installed updates.

    Follow these steps to view installed updates:


    • Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Programs and Features”.

    • Click on “View Installed Updates”.

    Keep us informed to help you further.

    3em dashes

    Hi Ronald,

    For us to better understand that situation you're in, kindly provide us the information we need below:

    • Which application are you trying to use? Are you using an Office application?
    • Since you're able to post the desired dash in this post, have you tried using it in the application you're using?

    Meanwhile, we suggest using Windows Alt Codes by pressing Alt+0151 and repeat it without having a space to see if it helps.

    We are looking forward to your response.

    Why does my computer spam dashes?

    How do I filter Spam in Mail Windows 10?

    Please get back to us with updated status, we will be happy to assist you.

    You can move to spam folder all day long and you get the same unwanted emails the next day. What a piece of crap. I'm about to go with a Chromebook or Apple. Microsoft sucks more and more.
