  Original title: my computer is corrupt and needs fixing!

  I received calls from a person in India who said that they are Windows services centre telling me that they have received the error message saying that my computer is damaged, and they want to help me.  But I have not received any error message on my screen.  When I asked them how they got my number they said it's from the database of Windows. The number they gave me is 02921252715 and when I called the number of the person on the other end told me that they are a company called Windows e-solution, independent company and is not attached to Microsoft Windows.  What should I do?  Are these authentic calls and approved by Microsoft Windows?

  Microsoft has none of the unsolicited telephone calls to help you fix your computer

  In this type of scam cybercriminals are calling you and claim to be of Support technique Microsoft. They offer help with your computer problems. Once scammers have earned your trust, they try to steal and damage your computer with malicious software, including viruses and spyware.

  Although the law enforcement can trace phone numbers, often authors use pay telephones, disposable cell phones or stolen cellular phone numbers. Better avoid fooling themselves rather than try to repair the damage afterwards.

  Treat all unsolicited sceptically telephone calls. Don't provide personal information.

  If you receive an unsolicited call from someone who claims to be from Technical Support Microsoft, hang up. We do not have such calls.

  If you think you might be a victim of fraud, you can report it. For more information, see: what to do if you think you have been scammed.

  How to ensure that my computer has microphones and then use them for talking to Cortana?

  Hi Walter,

  Please start by http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/cortana-privacy-faq

  Also, try to review this tutorial: http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/4026-cortana-turn-off-windows-10-a.html

  They should help you get started.  Problems specific to the micro (existence, activation, volume,...) will be addressed (more than the troubleshooting steps if Cortana doesn't) that you go through the above; However, a "one-stop-shop" for microphones & recognition recording & speech covering all peripheral aspects are versatile control panel page (see the path in the blue header at the top of the screenshot pictured below for W10Pro 11102).

• Just got a call from "India", I think, telling me that my computer has thousands of problems and willing to buy a security at a cost of $250.00 permit. Is this really from Microsoft?

  I did not understand everything what the gentleman said to me.  He kept insisting that I have purchase a license of security.  I finally told him I had no free $ 250.00 and asked him to return my computer to how he found it.

  You have been scammed.

  Microsoft does not make any calls like this.
