I’m beyond frustrated. Microsoft randomly locked my account after I moved 30 years' worth of irreplaceable photos and work to OneDrive. I was consolidating data from multiple old drives before a major move—drives I had to discard due to space and relocation constraints. The plan was simple: upload to OneDrive, then transfer to a new drive later.

Instead, Microsoft suspended my account without warning, reason, or any legitimate recourse. I've submitted the compliance form 18 times—eighteen—and each time I get an automated response that leads nowhere. No human contact. No actual help. Just canned emails and radio silence.

This feels not only unethical but potentially illegal, especially in light of consumer protection laws. You can’t just hold someone’s entire digital life hostage with no due process, no warning, and no accountability. If this were a physical storage unit, there’d be rights, procedures, timeframes. Here? Nothing. Just a Kafkaesque black hole of corporate negligence.

If anyone’s been through this or has ANY advice on how to escalate it legally or publicly, please help. I refuse to let 30 years of my history vanish because some automated system flagged me for... something? I don't even know what.

This is shady. This is unacceptable. This is wrong.

2 years ago i bought the 5800x3d, it was my first PC, did my own research and built the pc on my own with the help of some YouTube

I simply installed armoury crate and saw it install all the drivers, i was excited and started gaming.

Eventually i saw some benchmark videos on youtube few months down the line

I was getting 240-300 fps VALORANT benchmarks videos showed 600+ avg

I thought the cooler was faulty but didn’t bother to do anything,

Recently i felt like i should do something about it, bought thermal paste and changed it, thermals looked good but still low fps

Almost gave up until i stumbled upon a video about installing all the drivers, i thought armoury crate had my back, but i still started installing everything manually

Turned out my bios was running a 2021 build 😭, updating the bios literally doubled my fps The amount of joy after i finally figured out what was bogging down my fps

Be sure to update your bios guys, i learnt it the hard way.
