  Need help with windows defender. all my files folders pictures everythiing disappeared and I find myself with this black screen and it is not all good: o)

  I don't know why vista windows no longer charge, or when the files and folders disappeared

  How Windows Defender is on this problem?

  Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

   

   

  Restore point:

  Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

  Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

   

  If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

  Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

  NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

  It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

  You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

  It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

  And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Data recovery:

  1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

  2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

  3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

  http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

  Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

  Download the Vista software from the link above.

  After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

  Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

  Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1^st in the boot order.

  Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

  When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

  Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

  Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

  Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

  See you soon.

• Problems with Windows Defender, the computer support.

  I have spyware doctor™ installed and registered on my computer. Yet windows defender has repeatedly popped up and resumed my computer turning off not only spyware doctor™, but also all the other programs on the computer. I do manual restore just to remove the program. Also when he takes over the system it starts automatically from the internet and brings up all kinds of advertising. How this program can be stopped. All my firewall and security settings are set to high. Windows allows however in it because it has the certificate of microsoft.

  This is like Microsoft's Windows Defender. It seems that your computer is infected, probably by a rogue security program. The real Microsoft Windows Defender doesn't not part of Windows XP.

  Your system is infected with a rogue antivirus program. It's called "thugs" because he pretended to be a good guy but is really bad. Don't pay them!

  Malwarebytes' Anti-malware (MBAM) or SuperAntiSpyware will often do the job. Both have free versions and you don't need to buy these programs.

  These can work for you, and all can be good. However, in many cases the computer will also infected with other horses of Trojan and protected by a rootkit. These machines are extremely difficult to clean. If your machine is one of these cases, either the interactive assistance to one of the specialty forums listed in the link below, OR take your machine to a professional on the local computer OR backup your data and do a clean install of Windows. It's your choice. I do not recommend using BigComputerStore/GeekSquad types of places.

• Problem with Windows defender.

  I installed Windows Defender 10 days ago. I'm going to have a problem that the windows defender automatically turns off service a few times. The last time it happened when I ran a quick scan and in the middle of the analysis, in the system tray, it seems with a mark I opened it and I showed that the Windows Defender Service is disabled. Then I turned it on. But the problem is why what is happening?

  * I also using MSE .

  You must uninstall Windows Defender, it's redundant, MSE includes Windows Defender antispyware protection. You must have a program in real time of protction installed on your computer.

• Publish with windows defender - error code 800106ba when I try to open Windows Defender

  I use windows vista sp2 32 bit op system.
  Windows Defender is set to automatic. but when I try to open windows defender, I get an error code 800106ba
  Please notify hw to enable this feature for protection.

  If you use another program (other than MSE) AV, Windows Defender may also be disabled. Examples of these other programs include but are not necessarily limited to: AVG, Kaspersky, Norton, McAfee, and Trend Micro.

  Hi the ball

  Kaspersky does not automatically turn off Windows Defender. However, it is recommended that, as usual, Windows Defender real-time protection is not enabled when Kaspersky is installed. Its a similar situation with Windows and Kaspersky firewall products that have built in firewall.

  I used Kaspersky products for several years and it has always been the case in my experience. I just tested with Kaspersky Internet Security 2012 race and I was luckily allowed to activate the protection in real time of the defenders of Windows and the Windows Firewall.

  I hope this helps.  :)

• Need help with Windows Defender

  My first time using Vista on a computer. I would use MS security essentials, but it is said to remove the other safety first. Do I need to uninstall Windows defender? If so, how. It does not appear on my list of program anywhere. Thanks for any help.

• I have a Fujitsu computer Vista with Windows Defender and F Secure, Defender shows no question but F Secure shows "from viruses and spies malfunction."

  I have a Fujitsu with Windows vista by Windows defender. My provider is Talk Talk and they provide secure F. My! St question is do I really both.

  This time Defender tells me everything is going well. But sure F tells me "from viruses and spies malfunction' when I took the road that I am not able to turn it, if I click on tour, nothing happens and the alert does not go far. All of the suggestions.

  * original title - confuses security *.

  Windows Defender is the base defense that is provided with Windows. This is where if you have the defense long enough to get a real anti-virus program. If nothing else you should get Microsoft Security Essentials for free here:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/en-CA/security_essentials/default.aspx

  It will offer a lot more security than the Defender.

  I also recommend getting (also free) malwarebytes from www.malwarebytes.org who is a good anti-malware for the MSE scanner may not be able to find little things.

• Try to change startup programs, but a problem with Windows Defender gets in the way.

  I'm trying to delete a program to start automatically when my computer starts.  When I go to control panel and click "Edit startup programs" it tells me that Windows Defender is disabled. So I click on "put in operation and open Windows Defender" and get an error message: 0x800106ba

  What is Windows Defender has to do with my startup programs?

  I found a page that step by step has attempted to resolve this message error, but when I got to the step 2, clickStart, click run, type appwiz.cpl , and then clickOK , Windows Defender wasn't on my list to uninstall.

  Any suggestions? I just want to stop a program from starting automatically.

  Thank you!

  1. If you are using Vista, Windows Defender is part of the operating system. It can NOT be uninstalled. He lives and dies with the system.

  2. If you have the following antivirus (AV) installed, Windows defender is supposed to be stopped by the AV:
  Norton
  McAfee
  AVG
  Microsoft Security Essentials

  3 here is another way to startup programs...
  Start button > in the search box, type msconfig > press the Enter key > uac prompt > Startup tab > you can find the program it?

  4. If you have, see if you are able to activate Windows Defender long enough before your AV it stops again...

  Start button > in the search box, typeServices > press the Enter key > scroll to find Windows Defender, click on it >...
  topic status , it must be said... Has begun
  under Startup Type, it must be said... Automatic
  If it does not say that, right click on Windows Defender > click Properties > in the new window, make the necessary changes, as above > click OK when finished.

  For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

• Minor problems with Windows Defender in Vista Home Premium 64...

  Hi, I have a problem with the Defender, it seems that the program is updated, but when I open the 'color of program' Defender is orange instead of green.
  To search for "new definitions", he asks, I'm taking this step and then the color is orange, so there must be something wrong with the program.

  There is no error code.

  I use a HP Pavilion Elite with Vista Home Premium 64, and I use Microsoft Security Essentials such as AV and WF.

  Windows Update seems ok.

  Can someone fill me on this one please.
  best regards Carlo

  BTW; my native language is Dutch thanks for the effort...

  You do have a problem that you have to worry.

  Microsoft Security Essentials has its own integrated version of the defender and would normally disable Vista Defender.

  If you continue to have problems with the Vista Defender, turn it off:

• Windows VISTA Premium comes with Windows Defender installed. Mine somehow was deleted and now it won't let me redownload it. Said that I already have.

  When I try to download Windows Defender, I get the following message... You need not install it because Windows Defender is included in Windows VISTA. You can access Windows Defender from the Security section of the Windows Control Panel... From there on, I get the following message...

  I want to REALLY Windows Defender back. How can I do?

  This thread you latch on is almost 2 years.

  Should have started a new one for you.

  To answer your question:

  > Do I need advocate? I use AVG free Edition 2012 and Wise registry cleaner.

  1 AVG is supposed to close Windows Defender. This is because AVG has his own Defender. To have 2 defenders on the same machine will create conflicts.
  Thus, you don't need Windows Defender if you moy.

  2. I HIGHLY recommend that you uninstall the registry cleaner.
  In the hands of the users done computers, registry cleaner could be useful.
  In the hands of novice computer users, it's a time bomb.

  If you have time, read these:

• MSE in comparison with Windows Defender? Should I have them both?

  I'm already on Windows Defender is Microsoft Security Essentials?

  Microsoft Security Essentials replaces WIndows Defender. It does much more than Windows Defender.

  Are you already running an antivirus program? Microsoft Security Essentials can replace it. Do not run more than one antivirus program at the same time.
