Reinstall windows Defender

As windows defender has been stop and will not start, I have one installed the same.

Now how can I reinstall windows defender in windows 7

I'm sorry, but I don't know anyway to uninstall Windows Defender in Windows 7, so I can't say with certainty how to re - install.

I just ran Revo Uninstaller, and it does not show an entry for Windows Defender.

How did uninstall you Windows Defender?  Are you sure that your computer has Windows 7?  If so, what happens if you click on Start > Control Panel > Windows Defender?

Here's something which can solve the problem: run the System File Checker .

  • How can I reinstall Windows Defender on my laptop HP Vista 64-bit?

    Bots and a kind of virus/hacker got in and everything moving & ripped off many drivers needed for important security programs such as defender and Trend Micro Titanium, Ran Malwarebytes and Spy - bot Search & Destroy, but nothing came.  Responsible for Microsoft Security Essentials and who is working for a little time, and then when the computer restarts after updates through Windows Update, Security Essentials is disabled, just as the Defender is always, it seems!  When I try to start it (Yes, as an administrator!) until you get the error code: 0x800106ba and display hangs.  I try to save almost 4 000 photos stored on my laptop and transfer them to a new external hard drive, a few buddies very attentive gal of my friends bought for me (I'm home with AIDS and the very limited income, so it really sucks if I can't get my main source of social interaction, news) creative and well stuff even more upward and running the way it should have been when I bought 2 years ago!).
    I digress from the subject, sorry.  In any case, I downloaded the Defender, called Windows Installer: Defenderx64.msi Windows and when I run I get another error message that says that the Defender is already loaded and to reload I must uninstall Defender. and when I try to it says I can't because he shook in Vista, somehow and not repairable.  Please advise!  JSB

  • Windows Defender will not be updated

    I am experiencing strange shift of internet and I think it's because Windows Defender won't be able to update. I am running Vista x 64 final. I recently started to receive a new error every time I start my computer, something to the effect of Windows Defender service is unable to start. If I try to start it manually, I got the error: 0 x 80070003: the system cannot find the path specified.

    Normally I wouldn't complain about windows Defender does not because I have my own solutions, but I believe that it is still problematic within my system. Every half hour or so, my firewall warns me to say that something in a temporary folder called mpistub.exe or something is trying to access the internet. I found this exe is a windows update, so I allow it through. Now, I believe that because the service cannot start, the update is impossible to apply and continues to go to the internet to try to get a shift to internet update, causing news for my pc everything.

    Someone knows something like that? I would like to reinstall windows Defender so that it can update itself and let my only internet. And I don't mean simply turning on or off; I can't do this if the service does not start. Oh and I tried to restore to an earlier date, it is not far enough.
