  • HP Envy Sleekbook can not turn on Windows Defender

    This cam with Webroot and Norton System. I would use Windows Defender. The intructions elsewhere on this forum are for systems with Norton Antivirus. I removed Norton and always get the message "this application has been disabled and is not control of your computer." There is no option in the Action Center to turn on. How to enable Windows Defender?

    Thank you! Big_Dave and DavidPK,

    Removal of Webroot did the trick! I can now turn on Windows Defender from the center of the Action.

    Hello

    Defender is not sufficient protection

    you need to install antivirus protection

    you would have had a free trial for a new AV subscription

    This program must be removed before installing another AV

    read this information on the Defender:

    ·                         If you use microsoft security essentials avg avira mcafee norton etc they disable the vista version of windows defender by default

    the basics of Microsoft security has its own version of windows defender

    and other anti-virus programs use their own particular type of application to scan for spyware and malware

    It of nothing to worry and is the default action, which is designed for them to do

    If the above does not apply to your machine to read the information on the below link on how to disable the windows defender service in vista or make an autostart to enable

    http://www.groovypost.com/HOWTO/Microsoft/Vista/disable-Windows-Defender-service-in-Windows-Server-2008-or-Vista/

    and here is the method to remove it from startup in vista

    http://www.groovypost.com/HOWTO/Microsoft/Vista/remove-Windows-Defender-from-Vista-system-startup/

    and this is how you would normally activate or disable windows defender in vista from within defenders of own and options tools

    http://www.groovypost.com/HOWTO/Microsoft/Vista/disable-Windows-Defender-for-Microsoft-Vista/

    either of these programs free antivirus try after removing any trial that is always installed

    use the free version of either Avast

    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

    or Microsoft Security Essentials

    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyId=e1605e70-9649-4A87-8532-33d813687a7f

    scan your system for malware;

    Download update and scan with the free version of malwarebytes anti-malware

    http://www.Malwarebytes.org/MBAM.php

    You can also download and run rkill to stop the process of problem before you download and scan with malwarebytes

    I am not able to turn on Windows Defender. Whenever I click on it on my Section of security/control panel, a message appears for a split second saying it's off, then disappears. I just downloaded Defender earlier today, but nothing helped. Looks like he has a malware in my system that prevents me to light the Defender.

    How can I disable the auto zoom to the line. It seems that simply moving the cursor around the screen size continues to change.

    Looks like you are using a tablet.  You can go into the settings of the touchpad to disable the shortcut "two fingers to zoom.  Or just be careful not to do more than one finger press.

  • EliteBook 2530p. Can not turn on WiFi Windows 10

    EliteBook 2530p, Windows 10 home

    Ive just upgraded the machine above 10 win 10 with the help of this site. Everything works fine except one thing, I can not turn on WiFi.

    The orange LED on the touch screen under the screen and the front edge of the machine are both orange and when I try to use the touch screen to turn it on nothing happens.

    All other keys work fine so I don't think that's the problem. I don't know another way to activate the WiFi on this machine.

    The WiFi card is recognized in Windows 10 Device Manager and I have re-installed the card and made sure the antenna cables are properly connected.

    Anyone had similar problems with WiFi / Win 10 works is not on this machine model?

    Any help or advice appreciated.

    SOLVED

    I'm frustrated, trying to get the WiFi works because it is a machine I was in the process of selling and I had no user file to worry about, I decided to clean install Windows 10 and re - install Windows 7.

    I did this and load all nessasary drivers but no matter what I did the WiFi refused to turn on. I did several searches and HP Wireless Assistant who got the status of 'Wireless LAN' was OFF but the Start button is grayed out so I couldn't activate it.

    While remaining in the wireless Assistant I hit the WiFi button on the touch screen and a message appeared telling me to unplug my Ethernet cable. As soon as it is unplugged the button power on in the Wireless Assistant has become clickable and I was able to turn on the WiFi!

    So it seems that if you connect an Ethernet cable to this model of HP, the WiFi system is disabled and the only way for him help is by unplugging the Ethernet cable.

    I think I'm going to stick with Win 7 because I'm still not sure that the wireless card is supported under Win 10
