My Security Center cannot be activated? __

whenever I turn on my pc or restart it, I get a windows saying security alert my Security Center is turned off and when I try to turn it on it tells me that it could not be started.

Hello

Some antivirus/security products may cause this error. McAfee, Norton, Windows Live OneCare.
ThreatFire are some. What antivirus/antispyware/security products you have on machine now. And
who have you ever on it, even if you have uninstalled them. (These leave the remains that can cause some)
strange questions.)

Check the default services and dependencies to ensure that they are running.

    does anyone know why my Security Center can't turn on showe just me a message (windows Security Center cannot be started) what can I do for this?

    If someone help me I thank a lot.

    Hi belizariocruz cruz,.

    ·         You receive an error with the message code?

    ·         What is the operating system installed on the computer?

    This problem may occur if the Security Center service is not configured to run under the Local Service account, but the dependent services are configured to run under the Local Service account.

    Note: The following can be used for Windows Vista and Windows 7.

    Method 1: To resolve this problem, make sure that the Security Center Service and all its dependencies are configured to run under the Local Service account. Set the center of security and its dependencies services to run under the Local Service account.

    a. Click Start, type services.msc and press to enter.

    b. double-click Security Center, click on tab log .

    c. Select "this account" click on the Browse button, type Local Service and click ok.

    d. type the password and confirm the password and click ok.

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

  • My Security Center cannot see that my Windows Defender and Kaspersky PURE are active, how to fix this?

    Whenever I invoke the turn on now, he fails to get the updates (if the Defender is out of date) or it's up-to-date (because I've updated through the Defender on the interface). Regarding anti-virus, Security Center reports that Kaspersky PURE (obviously running not far from the clock on the toolbar) is / was not found. You can see in the screenshot below. Please note that Kaspersky PURE runs (lower right corner of the image) despite Security Center claiming otherwise.

    Is there something wrong with the part of my Vista operating system or what? How I solved this 'blindness' of the Security Center? Thank you.

    According to this link, you should not use Kaspersky Pure and Windows Defender on the same computer: http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208281579

    Try disabling Windows Defender and restart the computer.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Defender-on-or-off

    If the "Security Center" does not always recognize Kaspersky, suggest contact Kaspersky Support or ask for help in the Forum Vista:

  • The service of Windows Security Center cannot be started. (Windows 7)

    There is a red X on the icon of flag in the bottom right of my screen. When I click on it to start the WSC service I get a Message that says: "cannot start service of Windows Security Center." There is no error number.

    I can go and change Autostart Settings, and will work for a few seconds. The WSC turns on and then a few seconds later, it will turn, the settings go back to 'off '.

    Any help?

    Hello WK99,

    1. you have any software from third-party security installed on your computer?

    If you have security software installed on your computer, I suggest you uninstall and reinstall the security software.

    If still does not work, run a file system on your computer check tool. You can read the article which will give you information on how to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

    This can also be caused by an infection of malicious software on your computer. I suggest that you run a Malware scan on your computer and check if you have the same problem. You can follow the link below and run Windows Onecare scan online.

  • Cannot depend on Security Center "the Security Center cannot start."

    I'm afraid that my computer may not be protected because I cannot depend on SecurityCenter, would appreciate any advice, thank you very much.

    Original title: when I try to activate the Security Center, I receive a message saying "failed to start Security Center" can someone tell me why?

    Hi Bluehound,

    • Since when are you facing this problem?
    • You did changes to the computer before this problem started?
    • You have a third-party security software installed on the computer

    Step 1

    First of all, check if the Security Center service is set to automatic and started. To do this follow the steps below:

    a. Click Start.

    b in the start search box type services.msc and press to enter.

    (c) in the services window, do scroll down to Security Center.

    d. right-click on it and click Properties.

    e. check if the startup type is set to automatic, otherwise it is set to automatic.

    f. click on the Start button, this will start the Security Center service.

    g. click on apply and Ok.

    Check if you can enable the Security Center.

    Step 2

    If the problem persists, you can also try to temporarily disable third-party security software on the computer and try to check if you can enable the Security Center. If you are able to start, you can contact the manufacturer of security software and check if you need to change the settings. Later, re-enable the security software.

    I hope this helps. Let us know the results.

    Thank you and best regards,

  • Permanently disabled, Windows Security Center cannot be re-enabled or restarted.

    So I opened a file (like a fool) obvious malware and there is the Windows Security Center will be automatically disabled. Reactivation and restarting via the menu of Services only solves the problem for a minute or two, after which I get an Action Center message informing me that the Security Center is disabled later. I ran full scans with Malwarebytes and AVG Free, which neither identify all threats. Spybot S & D seems to identify that Security Center is not running, but "fixing" with S & D only reactive and restarts the service, after which it is invalid promptly thereafter. Can anyone help?

    The fact that you can re-enable and restart the service and then see off again (if I understand correctly your information) is a strong indication that there is still an active infection on your computer (as opposed to the impossibility for the throw at all which is often the result of inflicted malware corrupted registry).

    Use the Windows Firewall and BFE (base filtering engine)?

    I recommend that you run the following tools in more malwarebytes and AVG.

  • Windows Security Center cannot be started

    From: sabriel

     

    Hi, can someone help please... coming continuous icon at the Center is off and I can't get back in... the firewall and defender appears to be on and updates, but he says that the cant of Security Center did not start. can someone tell me how to turn it on: sab S... HX

    De :  Malke

     

    What antivirus program you have installed? Many antivirus programs and security have their own version of a "Security Center" that take for the one integrated in Vista/XP. If this is your case, then the behavior you're seeing is by design.

    If this is not the case, your computer is probably infected.

    There is no way for us to know who it is from what you wrote, please supply, the lack of details to get more help.

    The first Question of troubleshooting: what has changed between the time where things worked and the time, they did not?

    The second issue of Windows troubleshooting: what is the status of virus/malware of the machine? If you think it's clean, what programs (and versions) allows you to determine this?

    Make sure that the computer is clean:

  • Windows Firewall and Windows Security Center cannot start. In addition, no WSC in the services.msc list. What should do?

    Hey guys. I looked up and down for a solution to this problem.

    I already tried this solution:

    http://blogs.technet.com/b/asiasupp/archive/2011/12/27/error-code-0x80070424-with-Windows-Firewall-and-quot-base-filtering-engine-service-quot-not-available-in-services-database-list.aspx

    Although the only problem is at last step when I turn on the firewall Windows or WSC (windows Security Center) since neither of them are present
    in the list of the services.msc.

    So here I am without any windows security, no firewall and no updates. I really need help here. I was attacked by malware, a day ago, and everything happened after that. I removed the malware with program ESET NOD, but it seems that the malware corrupted my registry/safety inputs.

    Thanks in advance.

  • How to get the Security Center to turn on MY

    I hope that the answer to this will not take as long as he did to register on this site to ask a question...!

    MY is all green with a check mark (icon on bottom RHS of the screen.  However, the Security Center said no active antivirus.  Please tell me (in simple terms - I'm not a computer Wizard) how to get the SC to activate MY.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Sometimes, it is a bug that occurs, especially after installing MSE for the first time. Restart the computer and see if the Security Center successfully, then reports that you are protected by an antivirus.

    If restarting the computer does not resolve it, try the following fix - http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/c0ca9eb2-14b0-4591-be85-4b7fd1700191/windows-security-center-wmi-fix-onecare-green-security-center-at-risk
