A technician injected malware into my computer without my knowledge
<p>So this fixer that I asked to fix my busted front audio ports injected my PC with KMS-R@in in order to get rid of the activate windows watermark without my consent/knowledge, and it gave me Floxif.E and Floxif.H, and updated the drivers to fix the back ports, which wasn't even what I asked him for, is there any legal action I can do to make him take responsibility?</p>

<p>By the way, his store's affiliated with/backed by ASUS.</p>

<p>All this computer related stuff is really irrelevant. What is relevant is that he was supposed to fix a device of yours, and damaged it in the process. Usually you have the right to get your device back undamaged, and fixed, so it is most likely that the store is responsible for fixing your computer free of charge, this time properly. </p>

<p>Anti-hacking laws most likely don't cover this, because what he did wasn't unauthorised. He was authorised to fix the problem, including by fixing some software, so breaking your computer while trying to fix it isn't unauthorised hacking into your computer. </p>
