I have started getting a pop up from internet that prevents further use, and it seems to be a con or ransomware setup.


I tried uploading a Screenshot of the actual "error message" and "Please call Microsoft..." message but can't find a file type that is "valid" to insert...


It is a blue screen with leading message: "BSOD: DLL RegisterServer failed with error code 00x80040201"


Then a white box in center of screen (a verbal warning also comes out of speakers, btw) instructs to call Microsoft immediately and not shut down computer...Gives a phone number of 844 707 9566...


I presume this is not real, so am asking-is it?


And, either way-what do I do to insure security and get this gone? McAfee has not "found" anything, but I suspect that's not a shocker...


Thank you for considering.
