" A few times my computer taken over by suspicious people with voice warning claiming my computer got virus and has to contact MS "
And in what language was this voice warning?
It was English, bro. It had happened to me many times.
What version of Windows do you have - is it important?
- It is latest version. They controlled my computer when I clicked on one of the news on MS Edge Browser. This has happened a few times before. I just disconnected power supply from the computer. After that things went back normal.
uBlock Origin - I recommend this extension for Edge - you can download it in Microsoft Store .
This will disable disturbing messages - which are just a scam, it is hardly a real attack.
Best regards.
