David, just hang up. I tried really messing with them. I then told them tht
my system is clean. He said "we will see" 5 minutes later my firewall
blocked several attacks before they got through. I could not figure out how
they found my ip address until a friend pointed out that I am using internet
phone. All I can say is thanks for image for windows.
One friend really did mess with them and they were totally lost. The go into
your event viewer to show you the what is suppose to be errors. He totally
cleaned it out before he left them in. They did not know what to say. He
still did a system restore when they hung up.

I am sorry to hear that because I would enjoy every minute of messing with
the mind of some poor slob who might try that on me.
Then again it might be said that I have a strange idea of what is funny.

Just so everyone knows, Microsoft will never call you about your computer.
Hang up and ignore any future calls. Smiles.

Funny you should mention that. Today I was the lucky recipient of a scam
phone call. The robo voice informed me that it was Microsoft, calling me to
inform me that my Windows program would be shutting down because my product
key was expired.

I don't recall if this has been covered already or not so here is my
input for what it is worth.
Once windows 10 is installed on a system you really don't need to
worry about getting the product key or not. I have a couple of
programs on the server that will extract it but only if the system
boots unfortunately.
The fact is I just did a system reload of windows 10 this past Sunday
an although I had the product key documented it didn't ask for it at
all. In fact this Is the fifth reload of windows 10 and the results
have been the same each time.

Dave, Thanks although that the command did launch system restore her
computer is out of service. There were only 2 restore points and
neither corrected the problem. Running the 2nd time she got the
message that system files are corrupted and there is a disk problem. I
had her run disk checker it stated that it fixed several problems. The
computer still would not come up without errors and system restore
launched another disk check before attempting to restore. again it
will not come up clean. I do not know how to get the product key for
windows off of that machine in it's current state. I would consider
replacing the hd drive but no O S.
I will tuck this run command away for future use. It is much quicker
than going through the control panel.

Lenny,
Any possibility that you can log in as a different user on the startup
window? That might give you the necessary administrator privileges to
do a system restore.
Also if you can do a Windows+R for the run dialog, try "rstrui"
without the
quotes. That should launch the system restore application.

My grandson's girlfriend is having major computer problems. She is
running win 10 with windows defender. I.E. no longer is on her desktop
and she can not use the start menu. It states that the problem will
try to be correct the next time that she logs in. She tried this
several times. I wanted to use system restore and can not get to it. I
can not find any way to get to the control panel. Trying to get to the
place where you can type in you get the menu error. I tried several
things with the run command with no success Is there another way to
get to the system restore? She is using a smart tv with a hdmi cable
for the monitor. I tried to get her into safe mode but the tv does not
show any display with that option.
