• Firewall Windows appear to be turned off permanently

  I tried for a year or so now to get the firewall to work, he refuses. It's everything I have malewarebytes and MSE. I tried every common difficulty on this site, the addition of registry files, fix, it gives the error code 2738, trying to run with advanced settings gives 0x6D9, all patches CMD never work, and after all those who rather than give 0 x 80070424 it just loads forever now when I try to activate it or use the options on the side who have something to do with light. Windows Defender gives the same error code (0 x 80070424), I know it disables the MSE, but should not be considered as an error.

  Edit: just tried to run fix - it firewall and it coould not fix:
  Firewall Windows is not started
  Windows could not start firewall

  No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy

• Windows Defender won't turn on.

  I don't know what happened, but my Windows Defender just turn off by itself. I can't activate it. The Windows Security Center always give me the same answer. I'm really frustrated here. Please help me!

  What antivirus do you use? 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.

• Windows defender won't turn on or update.

  I have a toshiba satellite laptop computer running windows 7 Home premium. I am running Microsoft Security Essentials on my computer. It scans and says I need to download windows defender in offline mode to remove the virus completely. I have the Defender on my system, but it does not start. It is said that the version of defender is obsolete, but it wont let me update. I remove MSE, is there a fix?

  MSE automatically stop Windows Defender because he has the same properties. If you have a virus and it does not remove MSE, WD will not.
   
  Download the free versions of these tools. First check the updates and then run a full scan with each. It will take a while.

  Hi c.kelly,

  ·         Which antivirus program is installed on the computer?

  Method 1: Some antivirus programs have their own firewall and tend to turn off the Windows Firewall. Temporarily disable the antivirus program and check the issue.

  Note: Please make sure that you enable the antivirus software after the test to keep your computer protected.

  Method 2: You can run the Microsoft Safety Scanner to search for infection by the virus. Check out the following link to do the same thing.
