  • How do we uninstall Windows Defender signatures

    Kaspersky is slow.

    I had already uninstalled defender of windows using Add / Remove programs and it does not appear in this list more, but Kaspersky technical support told me that I also had to uninstall windows defender signatures.

    How this, or check that they are really already uninstalled?

    I don't really see an uninstall issue.

    Hello

    As I said, you can stop Windows Defender from running as shown above. It is up to
    Windows and cannot be uninstalled and there is absolutely no reason to do so since
    When it is not loaded at startup it has no influence on the system. Similarly, the definitions
    do not be uninstalled.

    If you are having problems, it's Kaspersky bringing as usual. Their support is just
    puffing smoke, confusing the issue, rather than admit their questions. BTW Kaspersky
    knows this as well because they say something that they know is incorrect, that means
    either they don't care or simply refuse to admit the real question.

    Bottom line is that if you stop Windows Defender to run or the definitions
    no influence on the system.

    Note: even though I am an MVP, I'm not a Microsoft spokesperson nor I tell
    I do not have to be the truth. Kaspersky is your problem.

  • Windows Defender turned OFF and I can't turn on. Is it because I have downloaded Windows Security Essential? If so, how can I uninstall Windows Defender, and then reinstall it.

    Hello

    MSE disables by default the Defender

    and no you can not uninstall then reinstall the Defender

    It is part of the vista operating system

    read this information on the Defender:

    ·                         If you use microsoft security essentials avg avira mcafee norton etc they disable the vista version of windows defender by default

    the basics of Microsoft security has its own version of windows defender

    and other anti-virus programs use their own particular type of application to scan for spyware and malware

    It of nothing to worry and is the default action, which is designed for them to do

    and if you need to change startup programs read this information on the other methods of doing it without using defender

  • Cannot uninstall Windows Defender Windows XP computer.

    Original title: uninstall Windows Defender...

    I am running Windows XP, Vista or 7. I downloaded Windows Defender on the MS site some time ago, but now I want it out for GOOD.  Can I uninstall anything else on my list of programs except Windows Defender. When I asked him to remove the program, he said: I am running in SafeMode (no) or my Windows Installer is not installed properly (not). How can I get it my computer?  I put it there, I should be able to take off, it shouldn't I?  I wouldn't be able to decide what is on my own computer and what isn't?

    Hello

    1. What exactly is the error message you reciev when you try to uninstall Windows Defender?
    2. You have Microsoft Security Essentials installed on the computer?

    Microsoft Security Essentials has not automatically disabled Windows Defender in Vista or Windows 7, you must turn off to avoid conflicts. Windows Defender can't be uninstalled Vista or Windows 7.
    If Microsoft Security Essentials does not automatically uninstall Windows Defender on XP, you must manually uninstall Windows Defender through Control Panel of configuration/Add / Remove programs.

    You can try the troubleshooting provided in the link below steps to resolve problems with installing and uninstalling the programs in Windows computers.

  • How to remove Windows Defender from Vista?

    Anyone know how to remove Windows Defender? It is not on the list of programs that can be uninstalled. When I try to remove it from the tree, I get a message that only a "TrustedInstaller" can remove it.

    It's been nothing but trouble I got my new PC in August. I spent in Avast and MalwareBytes, but I can't stop the system to get scans in tenacious Defender. I wanted to get rid of it because it will not update install. It keeps telling me that there are updates available, but the progress bar comes in with a small piece of the execution and the stalls.

    Updates Windows continues to tell me it is another Defender update available and also stops at install.

    Looks like Microsoft could do a better job of coordinating its products. I'm ready to throw the new computer and become a ludites.

    Help!

    I uninstall Norton before that I installed Avast. I went to 'Services' and 'arrested' Defender. Then I went to 'Properties' and 'Disabled' Defender. This should at least stop notifications. You can't repeat to you, I got it.

  • How to stop windows defender updates to install immediately

    I have Vista SP2, fully implemented to date. Processor 3 Ghz, 2 GB ram.  I have my windows updates set to automatic at 03:00.  These always install at 03:00 or when I select Install.  The problem I have is that these Windows Defender updates install immediately as soon as my pc starts or soon there after.  They seem to be ignoring my settings of windows updates.  It really drives me crazy because I have to wait and stop what I want to do both.  Windows defender updates slow down my pc or freeze the programs sometimes while I'm trying to use the pc.  Same IE9 sometimes freezes because of them.  Sometimes, I have to restart the pc to make it work well. They scan as soon as they install and they install as soon as they are published.  They are supposed to be for help, not to make my pc use miserable.  How can I make windows defender updates obey my windows update settings?

    Have you tried to install manually instead of by means of automatic updates?

    NIS 2012 should have disabled Windows Defender when it has been installed on your Vista operating system.  You turn Windows Defender?

    What you describe as gel application hangs, looks slow performance software conflicts such as those that occur between contradictory antimalware programs.

    I no longer use Windows Defender because of the risk of conflicts and problems with MSE.  I know people who have asked for advice in the forums etc who have had similar problems that you and their options were to uninstall or disable Windows Defender or uninstall their existing such as MSE, Norton, AVG, AV program.  Uninstall Windows Defender is not necessary, eliminated the problems of error messages, etc.

    You may notice the following excerpt from:

    MSE and Windows Defender

    Q: what happens if I do not disable or uninstall Windows Defender, if I use Microsoft Security Essentials?
    A: If Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows Defender are both running, your system can know the performance degradation and other problems caused by the conflict of two services providing real-time protection at the same time.

    The same Council also applies to people who use NIS, and Windows Defender.

    If you want to ignore my suggestions it is certainly your option.

    If you can continue to follow this thread maybe someone else will have another suggestion for your question.

    Kind regards...

    Look for Windows Live Essentials in the control panel in (add/remove or uninstall a program). Check to delete WLEssentials and at that time will give you the opportunity to choose what WHAT programs you want to remove.

  • How to uninstall windows media center?

    How to uninstall windows media center? It keeps opening up, and I can't open all the files, pls help...

    See - http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/15530/uninstall-disable-or-remove-windows-7-media-center/ - perhaps?

    But if she "continues to open and you cannot open all files" maybe something is seriously wrong somewhere else. If he goes much evil that is, no file opens, then when it started to happen? It has been recently? you got whatever it is installed again just before the problem occurred? If then possibly consider to delete that or try a "restore point" at one point, just before the error started.

  • I have 2 problems-how can I activate my Add ons and how to uninstall Windows Anti Virus. I need help, please.

    I have Windows XP 32-bit with IE8 Add ons.  I mainly use Firefox Mozilla for my browser and Yahoo as my home page.  Anyway, I have tried all the support and help guide and technicians told me to do to get add ons to open and activate but in vain.  This computer was given to me as a profession, and it was used in a Bank, so I think that the system administrator has disabled the add ons.  I myself as an administrator and use the tips and tricks given windows and Microsoft, but I always run up a wall.  I need help, please.
    I also need to know how to uninstall Windows antivirus software.  I can't find anywhere on my computer.  I feel really stupid and he is probably right in front of my face, but I can't find it to uninstall.  I have McAfee that I paid dearly for if I want to use it until it expires.

    This "Microsoft antivirus' witness (AKA Trojan W32/FakeAlert) hijackware infection!

    If you manage to somehow move to Win7, you will always have an infected computer.

    The ONLY way to solve the problem is by formatting the current hard drive and do a clean installation of Windows, whether it is WinXP or Win7.

    The ONLY way you can do a clean install of Windows XP if you have disks that came with the computer or if by chance, there is a hidden partition restore (not to be confused with the system restore).

    If your kids er - well & their spouses are going to spend money on a new HARD drive, they'be be better spend on a low-end Windows 7 computer and brand-new (for example, a netbook or a mini).

    NB: Any data on your Windows XP computer must be considered 100% reliable! (This includes all of your usernames and passwords, for example, those used for online banking, etc.) You do NOT want to put ALL the data from Windows XP to a new computer or HARD disk.

    Good luck, Grandma. Hope that your grandchildren will treat you better than their parents.

  • How to uninstall Windows XP PRO so that I can install Windows Pro 8.1?

    Problem? My Windows XP PRO is not listed in the control panel. (The system came with the new computer).

    I want to uninstall, & replace it with Windows 8.1 pro (disk).

    Is it done in safe mode? Also how a clean uninstallation is completed?

    MS says that an upgrade is not possible (since '23 programs, etc. need attention').

    All advice appreciated. Best regards, Doug

    Original title: how to uninstall Windows XP PRO, which is not listed in the control panel?

    Of course, it is not in the control panel. This isn't how it works. You must reformat and perform a new installation of Windows 8.

    Your computer will not be able to be upgraded. You must consult the computer manufacturer to see if there is even the disks available to this end for Windows 8. Probably not.

    And, even if all the drivers were available, you always have to reinstall ALL your programs and data on the medium of origin or files and backup of the date.
