Hello

Try the following.

Right-click on an empty area of the taskbar, and select Task Manager.

Click on file and select new task run.

Type rstrui - also enter a tick in the box for "Create this task with administrative privileges" - and click on Ok.

When system restore interface has loaded, choose a restore at least 48 hours before the problem with Windows Defender occurred first and then proceed to the system restore.

Kind regards

    Vista SP1 or SP2 installed yet? (just a question, NOT a recommendation)

    Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself.

    1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

    2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

    3. After completing some you have a copy of your handy product key, uninstall Norton 360, LiveUpdate and all Norton Add ons via Control Panel | Programs | Uninstall a program (or Control Panel |) Programs and features, if you are using the classic view).

    4 IMPORTANT! -Online activate Windows Firewall immediately after the restart.

    NB: Now you're "working without a net": no to ANYTHING else online (e.g., navigation, reading e-mail, chat) until you have completed step #7 below!

    5. right click on the file that you saved in step #1 above, and then select run as administrator.  DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

    6. do a clean install of Norton 360 2010 using your product ID & reboot: http://www.symantec.com/norton/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20080514162318EN

    TIP: Do not activate or install additional modules of Norton (for example, Norton Anti-Phishing) immediately.

    7. manually and repeatedly run LiveUpdate until you get a prompt "no update more".

    8 test cycle.

    NB: Only one 1 firewall must be enabled at any time. If the Norton Personal Firewall is activated (after you have reinstalled N360), Windows Firewall must be turned off.

    What do you use for your antivirus protection?  Windows Defender is not necessary if you use AVG, Microsoft Security Essentials, Norton or McAfee. These AV programs have their own antispyware component builtin and allows you to disable Windows Defender by design.

  • Publish with windows defender - error code 800106ba when I try to open Windows Defender

    I use windows vista sp2 32 bit op system.
    Windows Defender is set to automatic. but when I try to open windows defender, I get an error code 800106ba
    Please notify hw to enable this feature for protection.

    If you use another program (other than MSE) AV, Windows Defender may also be disabled. Examples of these other programs include but are not necessarily limited to: AVG, Kaspersky, Norton, McAfee, and Trend Micro.

    Hi the ball

    Kaspersky does not automatically turn off Windows Defender. However, it is recommended that, as usual, Windows Defender real-time protection is not enabled when Kaspersky is installed. Its a similar situation with Windows and Kaspersky firewall products that have built in firewall.

    I used Kaspersky products for several years and it has always been the case in my experience. I just tested with Kaspersky Internet Security 2012 race and I was luckily allowed to activate the protection in real time of the defenders of Windows and the Windows Firewall.

    I hope this helps.  :)

  • Cannot activate Windows Defender error Code: 0x800705b4.

    Aaron,

    I found this.

    The fix is for Vista - I think that it is probably useful for Windows 8; so Windows 7 has been built on Vista and then Windows 8 was built on Windows 7.  The core of the operating system is always "there".

    Windows Defender - impossible to activate the fix

    This is a fairly easy procedure - don't forget to launch the window 'command prompt' as 'administrator '.

    If you have Microsoft Security Essentials, AVG, McAfee, Norton, etc. installed, they have a conflict with Windows Defender, or turn it off.

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

    If it's not:
