Windows 10: Why does windows 10 ask me for credit card information after restart?

When i restart my PC now i get a series of ads before I am allowed to log in. They ask me to pay for m365 and onenote which i already pay for .. and if I casually click thru the prompts because i want to start my workday without this unexpected delay i get stuck on what looks very much like ad-ware. Is this adware? It's very misleading. It's hijacking my logon screen. Should I have security concerns or is this just how Microsoft does advertising now?See screenshot.

Credit Card Problem

(Given that I have no idea what the problem is, I have an equal lack of idea as to which forum this belongs in; thus, it is here, and open to being moved.)

Briefly, I received a replacement credit card last Tuesday. Getting it authorized was very difficult due to the issuer's system having a problem. With the help of a second-level technician, I was finally able to log on to the credit card site. That, however, is of no use, as I never get to the account data, just to a brief text message, "The site you are trying to access is currently unavailable."

I have made two subsequent calls; the one this morning got me a 2-nd level tech, who tried to fix the situation, and ended up suggesting I ask my ISP if they have any idea.

When I log on, there is a message in the tab about what is happening, but it is visible for such a short time that I can only read the first few letters. I surmise that if I could capture that information and supply it to tech support, that might assist, but I have no idea as to how to do that. Suggestions?

Furthermore, I have no idea as to what to ask the ISP, so suggestions about that are also solicited.

 

Newegg customers may have had their credit card information stolen

All of my purchases go to PayPal Credit, and not their new card either.

 

Credit Card Problem

You are old school as you can just as easily activate a credit card online. Of course they'll be security measures in place to make sure you are you *Wink

• Example: Activate your Bank of America credit card online (Bank of America)

And no, you don't "have to go online" to activate.
