Unfortunately, with so many posts without more detailed information and inappropriate comments, I can only provide general information that I think is correct.

 

First of all, I am not an employee of any call center or Microsoft. I'm a simple user like most people here. My answers are voluntary and without guarantee.

 

To be clear, not everyone has the same problem, even though it might seem so. That's why it's always recommended to publish a new post, as everyone can have a different hardware and software configuration.

 

If a lot of things are unclear from the start regarding the hardware and software configuration, it is good to give general step-by-step instructions that ignore the basic sources of errors.

In this link you will find some more information about it:

At the same time, I ask you to behave politely and not to make yourself important with personal direct or indirect insults.

 

I will no longer participate in this post, thank you for your patience and understanding.
