  • Safety poster Windows automatic updates is turned off, but they are on

    original title; Problems with automatic updates. Help, please.

    Security alerts Windows keeps advising me that I have automatic updates turned off even if I turned them on in the system menu. Security Center said, however, that they are turned off and fails to address the problem. I tried to run windows repair, but it has encountered an unexpected error and could not continue. I'm afraid that I have some types of malware on my computer and there is a security risk.

    Hi, Thatreallyawesomeguylololol,

    Start in safe mode with network.  Turn off the system restore to ensure that no malware hides in the restore points.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310405

    Download the tool from Microsoft.  Run a full scan.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=16

    Once you have determined, there is no malware or malicious software has been quarantined or deleted from your system, run the System File Checker.

    Right-click on the command prompt window and select run as administrator

    Type the following command:

    SFC/scannow

    Press enter

    Note: There is a space between SFC and / scannow

    Press start > run

    Type %windir%\Logs\CBS

    Press Ok

    Search for can't fix... and note files SFC is unable to repair (if applicable)

    Right-click on command prompt and select run as administrator

    Type the following command:

    CHKDSK /F /R

    Press enter

    You will receive a message about the disk must be locked.  When asked if you want to scan on reboot, press on Y and press enter

    Restart the computer

    The scan takes a few minutes and once completed, once the computer restarts, open the event viewer > Windows > application log. Look for Winninet to see the results of the analysis.
