Hello Emmanuel Korli
It is heart breaking to hear this, especially when you are older and you have lost everything you have saved over the years. I want to get Mac computer now, at semi-old age. I am fed up with Microsoft!!! Fed up!!!
- Why not contact Microsoft technical team? The support service is free. Why struggle on your own?
And, beware of fraudsters too on internet when trying to find a customer service/support contact number for Microsoft. I repeat, BEWARE as they are plenty posing as Microsoft support service providers! Once they get into your computer, they will ask for payment or disable your computer with virus. Be warned!
I don’t know where you are in this world as Microsoft have different telephone numbers for different countries. Best do as i did.
- I did this. It works as it gives them time to think things through. I wrote a firm sounding handwritten letter (not rude), telling them my problem, addressed it to the Chief Executive (find on internet who is the present one through Google search: eg “Microsoft Chief Executive USA”). I posted to Microsoft Headquarters, (link provided for address), giving them my home address and phone number. A senior technician from overseas then phoned me, logged into my computer with remote access, and he sorted out. He was brilliant.
- Sorry to say that you have accepted this negative situation, but you have to fight back and get help. And, you coming to this site has been a first step in the right direction. Moving forward is the next step.

Your files must be somewhere still in the computer. My prayer is that you all find your files. But you have to ACT too with the information given to you.
Best wishes with Wisdom.
