I can't activate the Windows Security Service

When I was looking for in the Center of the Action, he said that the Windows Security Center Service is disabled. But when I click the activate now button, I get this message saying box this service the Windows Security Center can not be started

Help, please!

Many benefits will never say "install Norton or McAfee on a work computer", and I agree (someone here even has that as his signature).

Please, if you care about your computer at all... remove Norton or McAfee and use a program that does not expire or never need a subscription or a renewal.  My recommendation: Microsoft Security Essentials.  The same tool ForefrontSecurity to protect some of the largest companies in the world, but free for individuals. Updates automatically, never expires.

  • How can I activate the Windows Update Service?

    I had to restore my kids PC. Windows Update gives me a message that it is not running and I need to restart the PC. I've done several times, and Windows update still does not work. I passed through TaskManager, Services and found Windows Update and tried rebooting from here. It still does not. How can I get the update of Windows running service?

    Hello

    (a) the first thing to do is to stop the Windows Update service on your Windows 7 computer. You can do this by going to start and typing in services.msc in the search box.

    (b) then press enter and the Windows Services dialog box appears. Now scroll down until you see the Windows Update service, right-click on it and choose stop.

    (c) now that the Windows Update service has been disabled, you must go to the following folder and delete all files and folders inside:

    C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\

    (d) once you have deleted everything, go back to the Services dialog box, right-click on the Windows Update service and click Start.

    I discovered this problem when I installed a new Brother MFC-7860 DW in my network. Although the computer can 'see' the machine, I can't print to it.

It seems that Windows Firewall is not yet installed on my machine even if the icons are in the control panel.

    It is unlikely that all damages that are left behind.

    Restore the system to factory settings.  Update all drivers hardware devices with the appropriate constructors.  Update the operating system completely patched.  Install applications of your backups of installation media and series/product numbers keys.  Updated all of the latest patches.  Restore all your personal data.  Enjoy your own and probably faster running machine.

    I suggest you also protect it with a compbination of eSet NOD32 AntiVirus and MalwareBytes (paid version) to ~ 85USD for the first two years and ~ $60 every two years after.  One of the best combination of performance and protection, I found.
