Windows 10: Why is Microsoft putting my computer at risk

Microsoft Insisted on giving a fictitious computer name something more like an address. when that did not work you insisted that I use 1 nominated by yourselves. In the communications for this it was compromised. I deleted it along with all passwords connected. ever since you continue to INSIST that I CONTINUE to use it which I can not do for security sake. I have chosen to use EDGE as my main means of navigation but to try and download apps etc. are blocked because you want me to sign in to the compromised address.

I did purchase a 1 year subscription to Office 365 but I am unable to use the full benefit for reasons as above. So I will not be renewing that subscription I have taken on LIBRE which is a free service and I get all the benefits. If a solution is not reached I will stop using windows 10 and move back to FIREFOX. Really the choice is yours depending on how consumer friendly you are.
