Microsoft Popup Virus Alert Blue Screen Warning. And recently a message popup on the screen saying Critical Alert by Microsoft. Hi I am running windows 10 pro 64 bit. The VIRUS ALERT TO MICROSOFT error states that the system is not legitimate running pirated software proliferating viruses over the Internet and could potentially be hacked. Edge Frozen with Virus Warning Popup.
I used Task Manager to close Edge browser but after re-opening it returns to the hijacked page. It will probably use a variety of technical-sounding phrases to tell you that theres a problems and that you are at risk for all kinds of scary consequences computer damage data corruption etc. You need to identify and delete all suspicious programs. I have IE10 and Windows 8. If you get a popup window like this one. And then closing the page.
When the pop up appears you wont be able to use Edge as the pop is continuously displayed the only way to close edge is using task.
Microsoft Warning Alert is a fake pop-up error message claiming that the computer is infected. Microsoft virus alert scams are a big deal. Make sure you have closed all. And recently a message popup on the screen saying Critical Alert by Microsoft. For these reasons it must be blocked. These pop-ups may vary from simple software endorsements up to a highly fraudulent phone support scam.
