    Hello ivan ivanič,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community forum.

    That sounds really distressing! Here are a few steps you can take to address the situation:

    1. Disconnect from the Internet:

    This can help prevent any further unauthorized access to your computer.

    1. Run a Full Antivirus Scan:

    Use your antivirus software to conduct a full scan of your system to check for and remove any malware or viruses.

    1. Update Your Software:

    Make sure your operating system, antivirus, and any other software are up to date with the latest patches and updates.

    1. Check for Unfamiliar Programs:

    Look for any applications or processes running on your computer that you don’t recognize, and research them to determine if they are malicious.

    1. Change Your Passwords:

    After ensuring your computer is clean, change the passwords for all your important accounts, especially if you suspect they might have been compromised.

    1. Seek Professional Help:

    If you're not comfortable taking these steps yourself, consider getting help from a professional who specializes in computer security if needed.

    I hope the information above is helpful.

    If you have any question or concern, please feel free to let us know.

    Best Regards,

    Daisy Zhou
