"Windows ran into an unexpected error" 1-844-313-8541

“Windows ran into an unexpected error” 1-844-313-8541 is a fake alert that sneaks up on users when a malicious .exe file is downloaded onto their computers. Techfreehelp.com was set up to represent this .exe file, but it is unlikely that many users will acquire it from this website because it does not provide any comprehensible information, and there is no motive to click the Download button. On top of that, such popular browsers as Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge, and Mozilla Firefox block the website and the installer. Unfortunately, other methods of distribution could be used to download the malicious file and expose you to the scam. Obviously, if you want to remove “Windows ran into an unexpected error” 1-844-313-8541 alert, you will need to delete the malicious .exe file, and that is easier said than done. Continue reading to learn everything about the obstacles you might face.

The fictitious “Windows ran into an unexpected error” 1-844-313-8541 alert is very similar to the alerts used in other scams (e.g., “**Your Computer has been blocked** +1-(888)941-3234” or “Warning Call (844) 763-5838”). Unfortunately, this misleading alert is introduced to you in a very aggressive manner, and you cannot disable it in an easy manner. The infection disables the Task Manager to make it impossible for you to kill the process of the corrupted web browser. Then, the infection also kills explorer.exe, which is meant to stop you from deleting malicious files. After all this, the infection opens a window that represents the misleading “Windows ran into an unexpected error” 1-844-313-8541 alert. The window is named “Windows System Diagnostics” and it is set up to make you believe that some files on your operating system were corrupted. This is meant to convince you to call the fake helpline.

If you are reading this pcthreat.com report, you must have figured already out that you are being scammed.
