I downloaded an update for firefox but did not restart the computer, just shut down assuming when I get up in the morning & start up the computer it will do it's restart. Unfortunately I wake up to my Windows license is counterfeit. I have been validated w/no problem for years. Can anyone help me? I uninstalled firefox because the problem showed it was part of the firefox program, but when I restarted it still says I may be the victim of counterfeiting. Thank you for any help anyone of you can provide!

Good Morning caperjack & everyone else,
Well unfortunately malware bytes did not clear the issue despite it did fing 3 trojans & a total of 39 problems.
So, thank you so much for that.
On the other hand, any other suggestions?
Thanks to anyone that contribute.
