  I recommend that you perform the clean boot and try to uninstall the program in the clean boot state.
   
  Configuration of your system in a clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

  Hi guys. on the macbook in system preferences > sharing there is a box at the top that says "computers on your local network can access your computer at:" means that other people can access my computer?

  "Your local network" is the computers that are on the same router as you. At home, this is your family.

  to: "computer name" is the name of the computer, they will see.

  Access is provided for items you decide to activate, usually file sharing. For sharing of files, ONLY the items that you specify in the file sharing dialog box details panel is accessible and be only users you EXPLICITLY list by username.

• Want to access another computer on Windows 7 using Remote Desktop connection

  Dear member of the community,

  I have 2 desktops, one with 10 windows and more with windows 7. Now I want remote access to the computer windows 10 windows 7 without logging on the computer windows 10. Kindly, guide me for the same thing.

  Hello Alice,.

  I would like to know some information about the problem so that we can help you better.

  The computers are connected to a domain network?

  Thank you for details on the issue.

  I also appreciate that fact that you want to access 10 Windows in Windows 7 remotely.

  With Remote Desktop connection, you can connect to a computer running Windows from another computer running Windows that is connected to the same network or to the Internet. For example, you can use all of the programs, files, and network resources from your computer on your computer at home, and it's just that you are sitting in front of your computer at work.

  To connect to a remote computer that computer must be turned on, it must have a network connection, Remote Desktop must be enabled and you must have access to the network to the remote computer (this could be through the Internet), and you must have permission to connect. To obtain permission to connect, you must be on the list of users. Before you start a connection, it's a good idea to search the name of the computer you are connecting to and to make sure that Remote Desktop connections are allowed through the firewall.

  I suggest you use the steps in this article and check if it helps.

• Received a call from a person stating that they came from wanting to access my computer Windows.

  Dear Microsoft Answers,

  A female caller with a heavy Indian accent phoned 29.11.11, claiming to be 'Windows' (no mention of Microsoft, as one would expect), based in the United Kingdom. She asked me to connect to the Internet, which I refused. This cold call and a scary message about the potential danger for my PC which struck me as the behavior of a crook. So I hung up.

  The telephone number of this person was 009999100290. By checking this number with www.whocallsme.com, I have discovered at least two other people who had been hit hard from that number of 'Maria' and 'Catherine', respectively. They believed also that was a scam and hung up.

  We were wrong, please?

  I would be very grateful for your comments

  (I have Norton Internet Security installed on my PC. A comprehensive analysis by that revealed nothing suspicious.)

  Best regards

  Hi André,.

  It's a SCAM! Microsoft does not make that neither have they partners that do and don't they hire contractors or individuals or even to find volunteers to do. There are probably thousands of these companies out there do every day - we get two or three posts like this (or more) each day ask about it. You are lucky who have recognized the scam enough not to be sucked in and eventually identify theft, infections, hacking your computer, convince you to buy software or services you either did not need or that do not really exist at all and all sorts of nefarious stuff. You'd be surprised how much contact us AFTER THAT that they realized they had been duped asking what to do. Don't waste time talking to these people, not give them any personal information it is, don't be fooled by what they can get allows you to see on the computer - in fact, not do anything they suggest on your computer or even to visit Web sites they recommend and for the love of God don't give them access to your computer.

  Microsoft knows this is happening, but with these companies popping up like dandelions, or closing and changing names when discovered and operating mainly from abroad, it would take an army of lawyers to sue each other. They do the best they can, but they are just too many and more added every day. People need to pay attention to these things. They occur not only by telephone, but also by e-mail, instant messaging, mail and all the ways imaginable. Forget not that Microsoft doesn't this and hang up or remove the emails or messages or mail from someone claiming that they do because they know the information on your computer or that you want to get information from you to confirm your account so that it will not be closed and asking you your name of user and password and all sorts of other personal information. Microsoft DO NOT!

  Good luck and best wishes!

• Have you been called a company telling you that they work for Microsoft and they want to rid your computer of malware?

  I had problems with the Internet. After many trials and tribulations, I was able to come back.

  I received three calls from someone who told me that microsoft has noticed activity too in my computer about this issue.it asked this company to fix the problem. They tell me that it's a company that has been commissioned by Microsoft to do the job.

  They called me three times. The first time, they tell me that they are based in California. The second time the same person recalls. Today, some calls from New York. WHST is happening?

  Phishng scam!

  Never let anything called 'Microsoft Tech' to connect to your computer.
  Microsoft does NOT make that.

  FYI...
  Currently, Microsoft only provides a support Forum to help customers.
  There is no 'live', e-mail, 'phone' remote, or paid a pension available.
  The only support is here on this Forum, nobody can help.

• Microsoft calls the people to report hackers access your computer

  I received a call from someone who claims to be from Microsoft saying that he had tried to reach me with messages pop up for 5 weeks to report that my computer has beed pirate.  They asked me to type int CMD in the start menu and then read a line of the type that started with "send to the target."  I was suspicious, but allowed them to transfer me to a technician who wanted to help me get rid of the intruder.  I asked for a number where I could call back them, and he argued that "hacker could be tuned" says so they would call me in return a number, I could see.  Pending their appeal, I did a quick search to see if anyone from MIcrosoft never call customers about the problems of this kind.  All the results, said that MS never calls visitors unless a ticket has been opened.  When they recalled that I asked wherever they called and they said in Brampton, but the number she gave me was not an exchange of Brampton.  Every question I asked foreign led and answers by a stranger, I told them white point that I felt it was a scam.  At this point, my technician has hung up.

  Is Microsoft never contact with customers all the so-called "pirates"?

  Nope. It's a scam. Microsoft will not call you unless you initiate the call or support ticket.

  Do not give them any information, or give them access to your PC.

  Do NOT meet such calls. It is all SCAM.

  Microsoft does not make unsolicited telephone calls.
