cannot open or turn on Defender

original title: Defender

cannot open or turn on the Defender, I used to have the live onecare and am running microsoft security essentials.

Microsoft Security Essentials has its own integrated version of the defender and it automatically disables the version of Vista in Windows Defender.

If it does not, you will need to:

Turn Windows Defender on or off the information on the link above of Microsoft.

Hope the foregoing explains the common compatibility issues with Windows Defender and MSE.

See you soon.

    You are running Microsoft Security Essentials, AVG, Norton or McAfee? If so, there is no problem. All those (and perhaps others) turn off defender because of duplication with what they do.

    Hi EddieLopezA,

    ·         Which version of Windows Vista is installed on your computer?

    ·         You have antivirus software on your computer?

    This problem may occur if another utility or service, for example a virus check program or a program disk monitoring, locked the partition before you try to run the Chkdsk.exe or Autochk.exe utility.

    I have some steps that may help you.

    Method 1: I suggest you to turn off all third-party applications and check if you have a similar question.

    To do this, follow these steps:

    1. open the start search box, type services.msc and click OK.

    2. in the Services (Local) list scroll the service concerned (for example auditor of virus or disk monitoring tool).

    3. right click on the service and select Properties.

    4. change the startup type to disabled for all applications 3rd - party that could be the cause of the blocking of Chkdsk problem.

    5. click OK/apply.

    6. restart the computer.

    Method 2: If this does not help, try to change the registry value and restart the computer.

    1. click on the start search box, type regedit.

    2. in the Publisher of the registry under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE subtree, go to the following subkey:

    \SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session manager

    3 change the Boot entry run of:

    autocheck autochk * /r\DosDevice\C: (or other)

    TO:

    autocheck autochk *.

    Note: Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk.  If you want to edit the registry to fix this I urge you to back up your registry before proceeding.

  • All icons on the desktop have turned to photo viewer and cannot open these programs

    I recently had my computer up to date. Everything was fine until I put my memory stick in the laptop and tried to download my back upwards. Now, when I turn the laptop on the icons does not load and are all stuck in photo viewer and I cannot open programs at all. Can anyone help please, thank you

    Original title: icons on the desktop

    I'm not 100% sure but I think that you are having a bad "file extension association. This is where the default program to open a file is incorrect. In the case of your office, these are all shortcuts (for example. LNK files) and the. LNK Association was by mistake coupled with Photo Viewer.

    I've seen this happen when opening a program via a shortcut (for example. LNK file), you are asked what type of program to open it with. After you have selected the photo viewer (or another program) via the Select a program from a list of programs installedand check always use the selected program to open this type of file (circled in red below), the document or program referenced by the shortcut of origin opens in the Photo Viewer as it should.

    The problem is that now all shortcuts (for example. LNK files) on the desktop or in the Explorer will want to be opened by the photo viewer and often use the icon Photo Viewer to display the shortcut no matter what shortcut was originally intentioned to open. This is known as a file association and the default icon. The same condition can occur if you have performed these actions 'Open with' on one. JPG or even a. EXE, but the. LNK explanation is much more likely for the items on the desktop.

    The good news is that a small free utility was written to cancel the. LNK file association was created. There is also a registry hack to achieve, but I recommend the utility unASSOC for its ease of use.

    You can get a copy of my OneDrive here. I used to send people elsewhere to download a copy, but this page is more in addition to confusion with misleading ads to download this and this computer of powders of snake oil "fixed".

    Just download, then use the utility to unassociate the. LNK files for the user or globally delete the file type and let windows rebuild a new default.

    I'm not what you mean... Start by describing what tools or methods that you use to extract these pages.

    What you write in the first sentence is not true, however. In the dialogue window extract Pages, you can choose whether or not to delete the extracted pages of the original file and extract them as individual pages or not. If you UN-select both options, you will get a single file that contains the pages you have checked out, and they will not be deleted from the original file.

  • Cannot open some files and programs

    I have windows 7, some of my files and programs will be open (ie. Recycle Bin, computer, libraries). They are sent to the windows Explorer file in the task bar. I can see what is in the file when I put the cursor over them, but cannot open them. I can close the files once in windows Explorer and when I reduce they seem to come on the screen.  It was not always thus and I don't know how to fix this or why it's happening.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    It may be an idea to run the Windows system restore.  If you have Norton Internet Security installed, you should disable Norton Tamper Protection as described in step 2, on the link below.

    http://us.Norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web & docURL = 20091112171719EN & LN = en_US

    Once you are done, turn off the PC.  Windows system restore is usaully better run in Mode without failure.  Tap away at f8 that you start the PC to enter the Windows Recovery Console.  Use the arrow keys to select Safe mode and press ENTER.  When it has loaded, on the Start Menu, click principally made programs, accessories, click System Tools and run the system restore.  Choose a restore point at least 3 days prior (or a previous version if available) the problem and then proceed to the restoration.  When you are finished, Windows will restart normally.

    Kind regards

    Hi MarcSatz,
     
    -Did you change on your computer before this problem?
     
    This problem occurs when one or more of the following conditions are met:
    • The registry values that are associated with the file name extension are corrupted or missing values.
    • The computer is infected with a virus.

    Here is an article that will guide you in the process of fixing the issue:

    Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.
