Re - turn on Defender windows manually
I accidently turned off my windows defender and I tried to turn it back on via the features info help, but now it says that I have to turn it on manually and I can't find out how to do this. Can someone please?
Hello chattykathy,.
Other antivirus programs can do that too. Windows Defender is part of the Windows Vista operating system and cannot be uninstalled, it cannot be disabled.
Open Windows Defender by clicking on the button start, clicking all programs, and then click Windows Defender.
Click on tools and then click Options.
Under the administrator options, select or clear the check box use Windows Defender and then click Save. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
I hope this helps.
Sincerely,

Norton is a 4 AVs programs (antivirus) which will stop Windows Defender.
The reason is that Norton has its own advocate. Run 2 defenders in the same machine allows to create conflicts.
So what you notice is normal.As for access to startup programs, defender of the window isn't the only way.
Start > in the search box, type msconfig > Enter > Startup tab > here is the list of startup programs.
To disable = uncheck the box in front.
To activate = check the box opposite. -

error 0x800106ba return continually in the relative to the Defender window cannot be marketed.
Hello
If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.
There is nothing to worry.
Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.
If you are using one of the above AntiVirus programs, this Information from David O - Support Engineer shows you how to manually enable Windows Defender (disregard information from uninstalling; not possible in Vista):
"Go to start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services. Look for Windows Defender.
Right click and select Properties , ensure that Startup Type is automatic.
Once modified, click apply and OK.
Quit and restart your computer. Check the back take the same path to confirm that Windows Defender has started"
.
If you want to have additional protection against malware using the version FREE of Malwarebytes AntiMalware:
http://www.Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
And for now, change startup Vista programs without using Defender, use one of these methods:
"How to use MSCONFIG in Windows Vista"

Or the program Autoruns for FREE:

When I try to turn on the Windows Firewall, I get a sign message that says "Due to a problem not identified, Windows cannot display the firewall settings."
I found another thread in Microsoft Answers relating to this problem, but who said to go into Services and see if the firewall is configured to automatically start. However, I can't find a Windows Firewall item in the Services Menu.
I have the PC Tools Spyware Doctor antivirus.
I had to do a complete recovery system... which sets just need to make sure that you back up your files.

How to turn off all Windows sounds?
I would like to work in a quiet environment. So I would like to turn off all Windows sounds without going through each of them via Control Panel-> Sound and defining each and every one of them (no). I don't want to rely on turn off the speakers I could forget often because I do not use the speakers every now and then to use practice.
If you want to silence your system completely, you can simply click on the volume icon and then select Mute.
Now, if you want only to silence the sounds of Windows, open the Control Panel (large or small icons) and select audio, select the sounds tab. Under his regime to No. soundschange, at the bottom click on apply then OK.
