My Security Center is not running

The message reads "the Security Center is currently unavailable because the"Security Center"service is not started, or has been interrupted.

This is perhaps the result of malicious programs. Click Start > run > type services.msc > Ok. Scroll through the list and locate the Center security. Double-click it and set the service to automatic. Restart the computer. If the service still does not start, you will need to scan your computer with Malwarebytes and SuperAntiSpyware. Make sure that you update the scanners before analysis.

  • Security Center does not recognize the Windows Security Essentials

    Windows Security Essentials does not seem to register with Security Center.  Security Center reports that no Virus protection is enabled.

    1. I installed Windows XP 32 - bit WGA, activated the product and updated to SP3.

    2 security Center starts giving Windows security alerts for Virus protection, because none has been installed.

    3. I installed McAffee VirusScan.

    4 security Center stopped giving Windows security alerts for Virus protection.

    5. I uninstalled McAffee VirusScan.

    6 security Center has resumed giving Windows security alerts for protection against the viruses as before.

    7. I installed Windows Windows Security Essentials and rebooted.

    8. I tried to uninstall and reinstall Windows Security Essentials with no joy.

    Windows Security Essentials installation did not prevent Windows security alerts.  No Windows Security Essentials registry entry will appear in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Security Center and monitoring.  If Microsoft consider essential security to be an antivirus product, then how to Windows Security Essentials register with Security Center?

    I understand that this is an information and alert issue only.  I understand that Windows Security Essentials works actually ok.  I am particularly concerned by the reports.  It conditions my deployment of Windows Home Server.  Deactivation of surveillance or the alert is not a solution, just a poor quality work around.

    In a previous thread, the author of this question even abandoned and has not requested additional assistance.  An explanation was given (relevant for Windows 7), but no solution has been offered.  Windows XP has not been addressed.   http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/Windows_7-security/the-Security-Center-has-not-recorded-an-anti-virus/15ae2383-7ced-4850-A863-f7eb8cc90ee5

    I had the same problem for a while now (I'm on xp) and have searched the Internet for a solution but found nothing at the moment.

  • XP SP3 Security Center will not suddenly Norton Internet Security recognize?

    Windows XP SP3 Security Center won't recognize all of a sudden of Norton Internet Security. It has been fine for years. I don't have a virus.

    How to fix problem?

    Hi Chris,

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community forum. I understand that XP SP3 Security Center will not recognize Norton Internet Security. I would like to help solve you the problem.

    This problem may occur if there is an inconsistency in the system files or folders associated with XP Security Center. Follow these methods:

    Method 1.

    Disable the firewall and check if that helps.

    How can I turn on or turn off the firewall in Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later versions? : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/283673

    Note: you should not disable Windows Firewall, unless you have another firewall is activated. Turning off Windows Firewall may make your computer (and your network, if you have one) more vulnerable to damage caused by worms or hackers.

    Method 2.

    Rename the storage folder.

    1 - Go to control panel, and then open administrative tools.

    2 - click on Services.

    3-go down to Windows Management Instrumentation and stop this service.

    4. stop the Security Center service.

    5-exit and close all windows.

    6. right click on start and select explore.

    7. go down to C:\windows or Winnt\system32\wbem\repository.

    8 remove only the storage folder

    9-go Back To Services and restart the WMI and the Security Center service.

    10. close all windows and restart the computer.

    Let us know if you need assistance with any windows problem. We will be happy to help you.
