Computer users that like to think they can manage to solve most of their technical issues may be surprised by the 'WindowsActivationError' pop-up windows. The 'WindowsActivationError' pop-ups are manifested by the WindowsActivationError program, which is designed to direct users to seek the help of technical support agents. The WindowsActivationError program could be found in the 'Control Panel' and you may notice that it does not come with a verified digital signature. The WindowsActivationError program serves technical support companies that wish to gain clients. Security researchers note that the WindowsActivationError program may direct users to call uncertified computer technicians. The 'WindowsActivationError' pop-ups may include phone numbers like 800-921-4167, 800-316-2052 and 800-792-498.

The messages by WindowsActivationError should not be trusted because users may be provided with misleading information, be welcome to purchase pirated copies of Windows, and install potentially harmful software. The layout of the WindowsActivationError program window may include links to legitimate remote access tools like LogmeIn and TeamViewer that may be misused by fake computer technicians. The WindowsActivationError program may close third-party programs and show a message saying that your license for Windows is expired, and you are infected with threats. The behavior of the WindowsActivationError program can be compared to cyber threats that lock the users' screen and aim to convince them to purchase an item and subscribe to services. PC users that encounter the 'WindowsActivationError' pop-ups should install a trusted anti-malware suite that can clean their machines professionally.
