• Microsoft Security Essentials disables Windows Defender in Vista?

  Can error 0x800106ba on any attempt to open code I Defender. I also acquired McAfee at some point, but I uninstalled it hundreds of years ago but I still have the same error message whenever I try to open Windows Defender. Help, please

  It is not fair to McAfee posing problem with the Defender:

  Windows Defender:

  If you have Microsoft Security Essentials, AVG, McAfee, Norton, etc. installed, they have a conflict with Windows Defender, or turn it off.

  Microsoft Security Essentials has its own integrated version of the defender and should automatically disable the version of Vista in Windows Defender.

  If it's not:

  Turn Windows Defender on or off the information on the link above of Microsoft.

  Hope the above explains the common compatibility issues with Windows Defender and other security programs.

  Hello, just to be sure I have the correct information, Windows Defender lights not in Windows Vista with Microsoft Security Essentials, as Essentials has its own version of the Defender.  The error code I received is the same as the previous posts in which is: 0x800106ba.  Again, just to be sure, I understand, I should stop trying to turn Defender because Security Essentials has covered it, okay?

  Q: is - this installation of Microsoft Security Essentials (XP/Vista/7) disable Windows Defender?
  A: Microsoft Security Essentials should disable Windows Defender in Vista and Windows 7, and then uninstall it from XP. In some cases, this does not happen automatically.
   

  Q: what happens if I do not disable or uninstall Windows Defender, if I use Microsoft Security Essentials (XP/Vista/7)?
  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.

  Two different programs, is Security essentials and windows defender? They collide

  Yes, 2 different applications. Defender is anti-spyware only and Security Essentials has antispyware and antivirus. Windows Defender is useless if you use Microsoft Security Essentials, given that the built-in anti-spyware component and allows you to disable Windows Defender by design.

  See http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/protect/forum/protect_start/windows-defender-and-microsoft-security-essentials/5309cb8d-02e1-40e8-974f-0dcedb9ab9fd

• Microsoft Security Essentials OR Windows Defender

  What is the difference between Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows Defender

  Windows Defender is anti-spyware.  Microsoft Security Essentials include this feature and also includes a complete antivirus protection. If you decide to use MSE will not advocate, and it will be disabled by design when you install MSE.

• Microsoft Security Essentials replaces Windows Defender and what is the difference?

  Microsoft Security Essentials has a download of much larger definitions (45 MB) Windows Defender (about 13 MB). That means more MSE WD do? The current definitions of MSE download contains the same version of engine 1.1.5502.0 as the current update of WD. How about a link to MS site to learn what MSE; In addition, compared to the WD curiously enough, can not find such a link on the MSE sites.

  Norton, to less than the latest version, is a Devourer of known resources.

  In all the years using Windows XP, from time to time the navigation were I shouldn't, I have never had problems. I use F-Secure for the past 2 years, very occasionally run malaware application manually, it never finds anything

• Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows Defender works not together

  I've recently switched to Microsoft Security Essentials, I it works on Windows Vista, but now Windows Defender is turned off.  If I try to 'start' Defender window freezes and it keeps just who goes back to the window where I would start from.  These two programs are not compatible?

• MS Security Essentials and Windows Defender

  Is pat MS Security Essentials Windows Defender?  I plan to uninstall my current antivirus and Security essentials installation to see if it has less impact on the performance of the system.  I disabled Windows Defender, based on the recommendation of Windows to have only 1 race AV.  The computer I'm using has only 1 GB of memory.  I also use Ready Boost.

  Yes, Security Essentials has its own component antimalware software. In my view, that it will disable WD when you install MSSE. WD is not an antivirus but MSSE includes a component antivirus. If possible, consider adding at least 1 GB of RAM and you will see an improvement in net performance. I buy my RAM from Crucial . MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• My OS is Windows Vista 64 Home Premium and I have installed Microsoft Security Essentials now, Windows Defender will not work. Why?

  Windows Defender encountered an error: 0x800106ba

  MSE must close Winfows Defender.

  MSE has its own integrated version of Defender.

• After using windows for some time Defender, I am now trying microsoft "security essentials". My question is what is the best? Security Essentials or Windows Defender.

  For all my other security I use norton 360 v 4.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  For all my other security I use norton 360 v 4.

  DO NOT RUN MSE AND NORTON AT THE SAME TIME!

  You will crash your PC often and it will become very slow.

• I just installed Windows Defender, but he does not see my Windows XP Security Center. I had to install Microsoft Security Essentials for Windows to see any antivirus. Why?

  I removed Bitdefender because it slowed my computer down a lot. I then installed Windows Defender and updated and scanned the computer (no problem) and said it was "protect my computer". But the Windows Security Center does not see any antivirus, until I installed Microsoft Security Essentials. Why? And are two antivirus programs now runmning together?

  Microsoft Security Essentials need to uninstall Windows Defender when it is installed. If youshould not uninstall via Add/Remove programs. See the following topics:

• Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows Dedender

  can someone tell me if I can use Windows Defender with Microsoft Security essentials

  Ah, I was wrong. Although the version linked to this article is from 2007 and as such is probably much obsolete. In any case, as you pointed out, they cannot work together and Security Essentials outperforms it far in the protection against threats.

• Windows Security Essential vs Windows Defender

  I have been have some system problems in recent weeks and have had problems of correction.

  I received message referring me to WINDOWS DEFENDER.  The problem is that several months ago, that I've upgraded to MICROSOFT SECURITY ESSENTIALS and it replace Windows Defender.

  Until I can do enough to solve some problems I'm having if my Windows Defender is now disabled, and that my system will be not left me re - activate?

  Everything is ok. MSE disable Defender, because it includes the features of Defender. "A programmer is just a tool that converts the caffeine in code" Deputy CLIP - http://www.winvistaside.de/
