The second Tech Support Rep also took over my computer. At this point I could receive emails but not reply to them. After two hours, he finally advised all problems had been corrected. The second Tech Rep didn't fix any problems. (The only way I can reply to an email is by using my iPad!!)

The third Tech Support Tech Rep said he was a Level 3 Technician, an "Escalation Specialist". According to him, there is no-one higher or more experienced. He told me he had corrected all my problems. He didn't correct any problems.

The Escalation Specialist now suggests I take my computer to a Fixit Store. He says he is out of ideas.

I am so sorry I ever installed Windows 10. I'm planning to buy a Mac.
I'd be happy to have a look at your problems and see if I can help. I've got no special qualifications other than having been a computer hobbyist since 1980 and mostly Windows-focused since the days of Windows for Workgroups all the way up to the present, so while I'm not a professional Windows tech, I do have quite a lot of experience solving issues. I'm not in TV right now, but there are various ways I could have a look at your system remotely. PM me if you're interested.
