Conflict with MSE and Windows Defender didn't let me stop the automatic opening programs.

I am running MS Security Essentials (on a Vista system) which has disabled Windows Defender.  Now when I try to stop a program open automatically at startup, I get the prompt of Windows Defender has been turned off.  The dialog box crashes when I click on the box to turn on windows Defender.  How to stop a program open automatically?

Windows Defender is not the only way to access the startup programs.

Start button > in the search box, type msconfig > Enter > at the top, click on Startup tab > there's your list of startup programs.

Uncheck the box in front to turn it off.
Check the box in front to allow.

Click OK when finished.

  • In Windows 7 Action Center, MSE, and Windows Defender convertible 'ON' at the same time?

    In the center of Action of Windows 7, Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) is enabled.  I tried to turn on Windows Defender 'manually' and get a status of "OFF"OBSOLETE"? that quickly toggles back and forth

    I'm trying to maximize my options "malicious."  I have NOT tried turning 'OFF' MSE to see if Windows Defender will be 'ON '.

    My real question is, can MSE and Windows Defender, being 'ON' at the same time or are mutually?

    A "full scan" using MSE detected the following malicious program "trojan:Win32 / Tracur.AV". I immediately deleted it. I think it's GONE!

    My "quick" weekly scans did not detect this malware. What a scare on my new laptop TOSHIBA P750.

    Now I take the time 'always' do a full scan.

    Hello

    Welcome to the Microsoft community.

    If you use Microsoft Security Essentials, there is no need to use Windows Defender. You can disable that and just let Microsoft Security Essentials run things.

    You should only use an antivirus program. using several programs at the same time will cause problems.

    Please refer to this link:

  • Norton Internet Security and Windows Defender

    Is there a conflict between NIS and Windows Defender if both are running?

    Yes bacause NIS has antuspyware built and running. Windows defender is a spyware protection program. They will both be in conflict. Disable defender, Norton spyware detection rate is anyway better than the Defender.

  • Hanging of Thunderbird 38, gel and does not question. 17 accounts pop (Win 8.1, MalwareBytes and Windows Defender)

    Since the update of Thunderbird to 38.* I had nothing but problems with Thunderbird wedging (spinning wheel waiting), a "Mozilla Thunderbird (not answer) ' in the header bar, whiting of window application out and possibly TB box in hell - a small box to appear asking if I want to - close the program, expected so he can resolve itself , or check the internet, then close. I now give the floor it the box to hell (B2H - call it all you want, but I'm cursed every time he pop up!)

    I did everything proposed here and nothing suits. I have used Thunderbird for years with all the same files and Add ons WITHOUT problem. On the first day of the 38 update everything has changed. When Mozilla realizes that it is in the upgrade and find the problem!

    Here is what I tried with nothing working...
    1. I don't have AVG, the only malware bytes and windows defender
    2. it still happens in SafeMode with no active add-on.
    3. I stopped saving function which slows down the frequency of the sinking, but did not eliminate the problem.
    4. I have deleted hundreds of older emails, thinking it was that but who have done nothing.
    5. I changed some accounts of POP at the thought of iMAP that was the problem but nothing has changed.
    6. I made several attempts to patch both Mozilla support and outdoors on the net. Nothing works. Looking at all the people who have the same problems, I have to say that the problem is handling of file. I noticed that as the issue with others who have multi files and emails. The answer is not to reduce these volumes but to understand why thunderbird managed their fine before and what has changed to make the program hang now? Who should be on your end, taken responsibility. Keep us faithful and solve the problem...

    Here are my tips...

    A. I have several files and thousands of e-mails longer and have manged fines, as matter of fact, Thunderbird has been great. Then like a good stooge I approved the moz and did my upgrade to 38. Never had a problem before the upgrade. After the upgrade, everything went to *.

    B. the 38 version upgrade was a big change. When I look in the folder that has been labeled the envoys or Inbox folder (where all emails from each account is collected), all the emails listed would disappear when I moved my mouse over them! Emails disappearing! They were there in records specific e-mail below but not but in the case of head as if it were just a day earlier and with the upgrade. I thought that as an addition on the question and waited for the difficulty that happened not so long ago. Again, which could be a problem of record add-on.

    C. the upgrade to 38 were other issues, but if the madness going no problem was not bad enough, the problem seems to be growing with each ' update or bugfix that followed. Don't hold me to it but I think it was in 38.1.2 or 8 (I think that's it. I wasn't paying attention, but if I had known that I would have to tell it, I will!) That's when hanging interminably long. When the program closed at least I got a project saved, then I read on line that the problem was the registration of open messages, I turned the auto reduction. He did change the frequency of the hanging (white screen pause) and timing (where the B2H appears), but he was always there and always!

    D. I had hoped with 38.2 there will be improvements. Nothing has changed. I didn't know that 38.3 would make this change/fix, but it's not. If I write all this, so you have what I know as a loyal user since 2007.

    E. here is what you need to complete the picture. I'm on a PC running 8.1. on an Intel i7-4770, with 32 GB of ram, now you tell me when you will issue the update to fix the problem! Once again, Mozilla, I suggest you start by looking at how TB 38 manages several emails, files and archives. Not all of us have only one e-mail account. Most of us have been really happy with TB before 38. If you can't find the question, can you show us how to get back to a version prior to 38?

    Thanks for listening and hope that helps!

  • 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.  :)

    Hello Dakks007,

    Generally, the Norton Security software will automatically turn off Windows Defender. You don't want two different security programs, performing the same job running on a PC at the same time, which can leave your PC less secure.

  • Equium L40 very slow and Windows Defender found a Trojan horse

    I was wondering if you could help me with a situation.

    Turned my laptop on and Windows Defender found a Trojan, so I chose all clear. Then it arrived 5 minutes later and I pressed on delete everything again.

    Afterwards my internet is incredibly slow and often freezing.
    Opening files and folders often locked up but I could still click on the red X if it took 30 seconds to close after that I clicked on the X.

    I get now random pop ups not even on the internet.

    Do you have any suggestions?

    Thank you.

    Hi Kieran

    Have you tried different antivirus software?
    I would recommend this. I use a software called Antivir freeware antivirus and it is nice.
    It of free and you can download it from various internet sites.

    In addition, you could use an Ad-aware to kill this Trojan horse. It of also for free and maybe it could be useful too.
    Google just to download it for free.

    If you won't be able to remove the virus from your system by using programs like Antivir, antivirus Norton antivirus, etc. and then use your Toshiba Recovery CD.

    I think this should help.

    Good bye

  • Sound distortion with sounds and Windows streaming media

    First of all, I'm not very technical minded, so please excuse my attempts to describe it!

    A few weeks ago, the sound on my laptop became distorted - metal kind of high, very "rough" and nasty high-pitched squeal kind of like your comments. Happens on all Windows sounds, on the media (like YouTube) streaming, but WMP works fine so I know it isn't a problem of speaker, need software.

    Just before this happened, I tried to download and install Skype, but couldn't get my microphone to work. I then uninstalled Skype. I also installed Spyware Doctor from PCTools, but there were some conflicts when he tried to run scheduled scans, three times, I started my computer to find the message "your system has recovered from a serious error" (I also have Norton Antivirus and Windows Defender running). So I uninstalled Spyware Doctor.

    I tried to find info online on this and have since downloaded and run CCleaner. I also downloaded and re-installed the Realtek driver for my sound card, but I still have this problem. All tips are welcome!

    Very beautiful ;) Thanks for this useful info.

  • Windows Update not working do not Error Message and Windows Defender cannot update Error Message definitions

    I have a laptop Dell 1501 with Vista Home Basic 32-bit.

    I ran CA 2010 Security Suite and you have scanned for Malware with regard to the Windows Update Error Message. He found none. I ran Microsoft Malware malicious tool, and it found. I ran Windows Defender and he found. I don't have CA and Windows Firewall to protect my computer and I have disabled both in trying to solve this problem of Windows Update and Windows Defender.

    I got this error 4 days ago. Here is what I tried:

    -I went on various Web sites, including Microsoft Support - and tried to solve the problem through services.msc and msconfig.exe. None worked.

    -J' noticed in msconfig. where it says start waiting next to Windows Update. There are 3-4 elements, which are affiliated to Windows Update and made sure they did not exist in the registry.

    -J' have to ensure that they were supposed to be automatic or manual under services.msc.

    -J' rebooted several times and nothing changes.

    Windows Defender does not update the definitions, and I do not know if this coincides with the release of Windows does not.

    I am at my wit's end and do not want to crash and burn my computer.

    I need serious help. Please, I beg you!

    Thank you.

    I had to call Microsoft. Alex tried to add registry keys and input upgrade.

    My Windows Update has almost been altered. It could be my mistake or it has become corrupted when running other services at the same time.

    I was sent a Windows 7 Home Premium Disc to upgrade and start over, as my Vista disk was corrupted as well.

    I would not recommend trying one of the suggestions listed on other sites. It's my personal opinion because I have in the past and it worsened my problem.

    I also wouldn't delete all programs (unless absolutely necessary) because I remove 4 MSMXL and he made their work more difficult.

    ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    Sometimes the only solution is to call Microsoft and they will evaluate if a charge of telephone support is necessary from the outset, before they run for your problem.

    Despite what you may have read, Microsoft Technical Support technicians are very efficient and kind.

    We inform you to open a slot during your day or even open your day for the problem to be solved.

    Mine took 2 1/2 hours, and they had to remind me the next day to make the order for the disk because it could not be done the same day.

    The more patient and kind you are, the best representative.

    Hope this helps and thanks for reading,.

    Norton internet security becomes awkward

    Peter

    Hello

    Yes you still need an antivirus program and you are right that Norton tends to cause problems.

    Norton Removal Tool
    http://Service1.Symantec.com/support/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2005033108162039

    You want to remove Norton and old and even uninstalled antivirus can leave remnants then download and run
    the Norton Removal Tool. Also, I would get Avast and Prevx and you should be in good shape.

    Download the 3 to get back to after removing the McAfee antivirus.

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AS ADMIN - REBOOT after each.

    --------------------------------------------------------

    Here is what I use:

    Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.

    Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.

    Prevx - Home - free

    Windows Firewall

    Windows Defender

    Protected IE - mode

    IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

    I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
    (Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)

    Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
    (Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).
    http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html
    Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
    a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.
    http://www.prevx.com/

    PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
    http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
    Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
    a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

    I hope this helps.

    An Antivirus is a fundamental need for security to prevent malware being installed.

    Malware to disable your firewall and your safety programs.

    Scan of Malware in Safe Mode with network.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/how-to-start-Windows-in-safe-mode/#Vista

    Windows Vista

    Using the F8 method:

    1. Restart your computer.
    2. When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap the F8 key repeatedly until you are presented with the Boot Options Advanced Windows Vista.
    3. Select the Safe Mode with networking with the arrow keys.
    4. Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.
    5. To start Windows, you'll be a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and Vista goes into safe mode.
    6. Do whatever tasks you need and when you are done, reboot to return to normal mode.

    Once in Safe Mode with network, download and run RKill.

    RKill does NOT remove the malware; It stops the Malware process that gives you a chance to remove it with your security programs.

    Then, download, install, update and scan your system with the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware in Mode safe mode with networking:

    http://www.Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free

    For an Antivirus, install one of these free AVs (installation more than it will cause problems).

    And first of all remove any AVs expired may still have installed:
