• Download Microsoft Security Essentials for another computer

  I'm trying to fix a friends computer, but the internet is now down.  However, there is no anti-virus installed.  I want to download Microsoft Security Essentials on a USB key so that I can install it on his computer.

  The problem is that I have Windows 8.1 and whenever I go to the page to download MSE for XP, it shows me only the options for Windows 8.1, which does not use that.
  How can I download MSE for XP to my computer Windows 8.1?

  I have no win 8.1 to see what is happening, but go here, scroll down to 'English' and use the drop-down list on the right to get the XP version: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security-essentials-all-versions

  I just downloaded Microsoft Security Essentials. Now, I get my Firewall is not on Windows messages.

  Question 1: What is Microsoft Security Essentials has a firewall? If so, then I know that I don't need the Windows Firewall.

  Question 2: if not, then I have another problem. I tried to activate Windows Firewall and got a message saying that the Firewall Service cannot be turned on. Why do I get this message?

  Thanks for your help.

  Lynn

  Microsoft Security Essentials NOT came with the firewall, you can use the Windows Firewall in your firewall. You must use the Windows Firewall.

  For the error on the Windows Firewall, take a look on:

  In this article, you may need to change a registry value, very careful when you do this. I suggest to backup registry before trying to solve.

• installed Windows 7. Rid of Kaspersky and downloaded Microsoft Security Essentials. Good choice? And do I need anything else?

  Just installed Windows 7.  Rid of Kaspersky and downloaded Microsoft Security Essentials.  Good choice?  And do I need anything else?

  Kaspersky is a great AV program But for a free option, MSE is also very good. Nothing will catch 100% of things, but MSE is one of the few that do a great job!

  You may download Malwarebytes and run the free version, make a weekly scan. These two together can usually keep your system very clean and safe.
  But do not forget also to navigate safely. Do not download random programs or open attachments that aren't expected, etc...

  I reformatted my HD for windows svc pack 3 and tried to download Microsoft security essentials. Rec'd a msg that I need to activate my windows reinstallation, but my computer does not accept my original product key of my lable on the computer.  suggestions how to proceed?

  I moved your post on the forum to activate XP because this isn't a question of MSE.

  The label on your PC is an OEM version of the operating system. You must use an OEM installation CD or the key will not work. If you have used this PC's drive, the key should work and you may have mistyped the key.

  See if you can uninstall your current version of MSE using Microsoft 'Fixit' at the following link: this is particularly useful for correcting problems that may prevent resettlement on the machines running a 64 bit OS.

• Why am I not able to download microsoft security essentials for my Surface RT

  Downloads of microsoft security essentials, but am told that my device does not accept this app

  You can install apps from the store on SurfaceRT, so any software that you are trying to download from the internet or USB does not work.

  Microsoft built aspects of Security Essentials in Windows RT, so there is no need to download the software.  Every day, I receive an update of the Defender through Windows Update definitions.

• Microsoft Security Essentials runs on Windows XP after April 2014?

  Dear MS,

  As Microsoft Security Essentials has proved to be a program of exceptional anti-virus/Malware protection for all current versions of Windows, MSE still support with updates for Windows XP after April 2014?  Or Windows XP users will have to find a competitive package of anti-virus?

  Kind regards

  Jack

  MSE will always protect you. This is XP which will not receive any further updates.
