• can not turn on the windows, using Security Center?

  recently, I was infected by the virus of fake anti-spyware program called desktop defender 2010. I think I have all that, but is windows Security Center is still saying it is offline and when I try to turn it on, it tells me that it cannot be started. Anyone know what the problem is or how to fix it? Thanks in advance!

  The computer is not completely cleaned up damaged Windows. Make sure that the machine is really clean:

  If the computer really is malware-free, then make sure that the Security Center service is running.
  Start > Search > type: services
  When Services appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator". Provide the password/OK for UAC and Services open up high. Scroll down to the Windows Security Center and it is is not running double-click to launch it.

  If this does not work, you can try to repair the system files with the System File Checker. Start a command prompt in the same way that you did Services exception type: cmd
  At the command prompt, type: sfc/scannow [Enter] MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - Don ' t Panic!

  When I try to turn on the Windows Firewall, I get a sign message that says "Due to a problem not identified, Windows cannot display the firewall settings."

  I found another thread in Microsoft Answers relating to this problem, but who said to go into Services and see if the firewall is configured to automatically start.  However, I can't find a Windows Firewall item in the Services Menu.

  I have the PC Tools Spyware Doctor antivirus.

  I had to do a complete recovery system... which sets just need to make sure that you back up your files.

• surcurity essentials does not start, and the windows firewall does not illuminate

  Hello

  I have a problem, he seems to have had a virus on my pc. Essentials of security does not illuminate and the windows firewall will not also turn on, I tried to use the tool to "fix" windows and it doesn't solve the problem.

  the original virus seemed to rename its self as a program existing and renamed the oringinal by a space in the name, for example "adobearm.exe" became "adobearm .exe" there is a space before the dot.

  The virus called his free adobearm.exe icon because it is a yellow / orange with a letter H, at the Center

  different file name her seemed to be part of the virus included "ag7yl5x8.exe".

  If you tried to close them in the task manager that they just either came back or a different file name would appear in the list.

  I also couldn't do a windows update, but I think as the tool to 'fix' as cured this problem.

  Can someone help me please.

  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

• EliteBook 2530p. Can not turn on WiFi Windows 10

  EliteBook 2530p, Windows 10 home

  Ive just upgraded the machine above 10 win 10 with the help of this site. Everything works fine except one thing, I can not turn on WiFi.

  The orange LED on the touch screen under the screen and the front edge of the machine are both orange and when I try to use the touch screen to turn it on nothing happens.

  All other keys work fine so I don't think that's the problem. I don't know another way to activate the WiFi on this machine.

  The WiFi card is recognized in Windows 10 Device Manager and I have re-installed the card and made sure the antenna cables are properly connected.

  Anyone had similar problems with WiFi / Win 10 works is not on this machine model?

  Any help or advice appreciated.

  SOLVED

  I'm frustrated, trying to get the WiFi works because it is a machine I was in the process of selling and I had no user file to worry about, I decided to clean install Windows 10 and re - install Windows 7.

  I did this and load all nessasary drivers but no matter what I did the WiFi refused to turn on. I did several searches and HP Wireless Assistant who got the status of 'Wireless LAN' was OFF but the Start button is grayed out so I couldn't activate it.

  While remaining in the wireless Assistant I hit the WiFi button on the touch screen and a message appeared telling me to unplug my Ethernet cable. As soon as it is unplugged the button power on in the Wireless Assistant has become clickable and I was able to turn on the WiFi!

  So it seems that if you connect an Ethernet cable to this model of HP, the WiFi system is disabled and the only way for him help is by unplugging the Ethernet cable.

  I think I'm going to stick with Win 7 because I'm still not sure that the wireless card is supported under Win 10
