Microsoft Support Alert pop-up in your browser is caused by adware on your computer. If your computer is infected with adware, then Microsoft Support Alert advertisements show up in your browser.

Not only adware is responsible for the Microsoft Support Alert pop-up ads. On the Internet, ad networks can also redirect your browser to Microsoft Support Alert. Some websites redirect users through ad networks to generate revenue. Therefore your browser may end up on the Microsoft Support Alert site.

I recommend that you check your computer for adware with Malwarebytes. Malwarebytes is free to check your computer for adware. If adware is found on your computer, you can use Malwarebytes to remove it for free.

This way, you will not run the risk of unwanted advertisements from Microsoft Support Alert and other sites that hijack your browser again.
