: Protect my computer?
: Protect my computer?
Hi All,
I'm having trouble finding a reliable answer online... many searches on Google return Windows login results instead. Could anyone confirm what this software is? I see an image attached, but I don't recognize it and am not familiar with it. Thanks in advance!

I understand but this could be related to Microsoft's plans if I act as you suggest without knowing, which might lock me out of the system if confirmed... I also wonder who is aware of this software—does it come from Microsoft or malware? Please don't reply if you're unsure and let me know whether it's valid software or not. Thank you!
is it a business system? consult your IT department.
with sysinternals you can determine whether it is from Microsoft or not, but i strongly suspect otherwise.

Is this a personal or institutional system?
Did you check for malware? Is this a completely valid setup of the operating system and programs?
