• Security Center and updates of Windows do not work on Vista laptop

  I have a laptop Dell Inspiron with Vista 1405E.    The Security Center and Windows updates do not work.

  I ran Norton Utilities to clean the registry and I deleted Norton Antivirus (completely, following the instructions from Symantec on the phone), but nothing has changed.  Any suggestions on what could be the problem?

  Thank you

  Should I remove S * PERAantiSpyware from my computer?

  If it is not necessarily - free SAS, but if all were fine with your computer (and it's not!), you should not have installed SAS because MSE includes a component of anti-malware.

  Should I install the [definitions optional updates offered by Windows Update MSE]?

  You pouvez install them but this is not necessary - assuming that MSE is installed & working properly... but I suspect that this is NOT the case!  See this FAQ: http://answers.microsoft.com/thread/74e507b8-f6da-4eca-8ce7-d1aca7d3f1ba

  [Microsoft] Security Essentials is related to the Security Center?

  Yes. Security Center monitors the status of the firewall, automatic updates and Protection against malware (anti-virus & anti-malware; applications i.e. Microsoft Security Essentials).

  Translation: Since the Security Center still cannot be permanently turned on, there is a very good chance that MSE and Windows Firewall will not work correctly - despite the fact that we have now managed to get the computer fully patched to Windows Update and despite the multi-step fix, I had to make.

  In your case, there are several possible causes for this behavior:

  1. your McAfee subscription and/or your previous subscription of Norton AntiVirus may have expired before that you did something;

  2. do not run the remove McAfee & Norton tools at the right time; or...

  3. misguided use of registry cleaners.

  So, what can you do about it?...

  OPTION A: MSE support could be able to help you. Residents of the United States (only!) should be able to open a support incident free of charge by e-mail via this page-online https://support.microsoftsecurityessentials.com/default.aspx?productkey=morrolaunch&mkt=en-us&st=1&wfxredirect=1

  Note: After selecting your option, language (e.g., English-US) and clicking the button CONTINUE, click on the EMAIL button, not the FORUM button!

  OPTION B (recommended): See the poster in this thread and follow the instructions of (my) WHOLE (to the letter and in order! ) to restore your computer to a State safe & functional: http://answers.microsoft.com/thread/c44429fb-3f7c-4646-8529-5a97bb3cd0eb

  If these procedures are outside your technique "comfort zone" - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the local computer, reputable and independent (i.e., not a 'BigBoxStore' or Geek Squad!) computer repair shop & let them do the work.

  IMHO your computer must NOT be connected to the internet or local area network (i.e. other computers) in its current state. All your personal data (e.g., banking online & passwords credit card) must be considered at risk, if not already compromised.

  Wish I had better news for you. Good luck!

• What is the Windows Security Center and is compatible with Avast antivirus Protection?

  I installed a paid for version of Avast on my Windows XP computer. (I won't be upgrading to a more modern version of Windows.)

  I also called Windows Security Center.

  Is the Windows Security Center virus protection, or is it simply a place to control and discover whatever you have antivirus protection?

  If it is a virus protection, it would hurt Avast and if so can I uninstall it?

  If I removed Avast and didn't have Windows Security Center, I should any type of protection against viruses on my computer?

  The only type of protection against viruses in addition to Avast, I am sure that I have on my computer is Windows Firewall. I turned that off and am now strictly protected by the firewall of Avast. Windows Security Center notifies me of cannot have two firewalls upwards at the same time.

  If Windows Security Center antivirus protection it would do no harm to leave it on if the firewall is disabled and Avast is installed? Part of Windows Firewall Security Center Windows or another program?

  Guesses are welcome. Thank you.

  Hey there Clinton!

  I've identified two questions here, your normal text questions and my answers in bold:

  Is the Windows Security Center virus protection, or is it simply a place to control and discover whatever you have antivirus protection?

  Windows Security Center is not a virus protection it's just simply a place to control and view the status of the installation of malware * protection software, but also the firewall on your computer.

  Part of Windows Firewall Security Center Windows or another program?

  Windows Firewall is a separate component.

  Does Avast! Damaged, if I have another antivirus running program?

  It is not clear what might happen, but software may conflict with each other and may not work as expected.

  I hope that I have answered all your questions!
  Sincerely,
  -Alex

  Hi gettaclue2002,

  · What is the service pack installed on your computer?

  · You have another outside Norton Security software?

  Try the methods below:

  1. I would say that you stop and start the service on the computer Security Center.

  a. Click Start, click Run, type services.msc in the Open box and then click OK.

  b. in the list of Services (Local), click on Security Center and then click Properties.

  Make sure that you stop and start the service, then check if the problem persists.

  2. you can also uninstall and reinstall Norton Security software, and check the results.

  Link, please refer to: download and run the Norton removal tool to uninstall your Norton product:http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20080710133834EN&ln=en_US

  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

• Windows Firewall and Security Center will not start, error 1068 and 1079

  I can't start my firewall Windows, error: 1079... or Security Center, error: 1068. Can help you with this question? When I try to access the Dependencies tab I get this error: Win 32: the specefied for this service is different from the specefied to account for other services running in the same process.
