If you remember windows 95

There was a message which said , "this program has performed an illegal operation"
Well my mom got that message and she unplugged the PC and was afraid the police were coming.... 🤣

A lot of older people still fall for similar scams.

@Slicker24 They do, though the "illegal operation" message as the computer stopped was not a "scam" - just a fragile operating system.

@ArishMell Just a simple reboot in your back in business. I got those blue screens of death when I was using Windows 7. I was using Windows 7 for a long time because everyone had me so afraid that Windows 10 was just too confusing. They were full of it.

I am still using Windows 10. I refuse to go out and buy another computer just to get Windows 11. You can use any operating system you choose. Hell, you could be using Windows 3.12 if you wanted to.

@Slicker24 I wanted to move to WIndows-10 for an up-rated programme I use, but MS then converted it to WIN-11 and I could not revert it.
