If an account may be compromised, provider account recovery and a check of sign-in activity may be needed in addition to cleaning the computer. Device cleanup alone cannot establish that every account is secure.
Tell us about business software and important files before any removal or reset. The assessment identifies the cleanup and recovery options. Keep a record of relevant alerts without sending passwords or authentication codes in the enquiry.
No. Compromised accounts need their own provider recovery and security checks. Computer cleanup and account access are assessed as separate parts of the work.
