Said automatic updated Security Center is disabled; Control Panel says it's on

Recently starting Win xp, Security Center displays indicating that automatic updates is disabled. When I click to turn it on, he says he cannot not and indicates that it takes to do this via the control panel. In the Panel, it is stated that automatic updates is enabled actually.

It started a few weeks ago the same then, as a malware attack, which since then has been cleaned (apparently).

I don't know if associated: try to use Microsoft Windows Update: breaks down, ditto always fails just check the updates.

Even if the infection has been removed some repair work is needed.

Take a look at the following article in the knowledge base.

Error message when you use Microsoft Update or Windows Update Web sites to install updates: 0 x 80070424

If restarting of the services mentioned in the article above does not resolve the problem, you may need to use the Reset of Windows Update by using the tool FixIt.

  • Security Center is disabled in XP and cannot allow

    When I click on anti virus install and automatic change Security Center is to disable and then start... .but still referring new problem and auto to turn off again, I don't know how you can keep this obtion to automatic. Please help me. :)

    Hi LalithNaveen,

    1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    2. what security software you have installed on the computer?

    3 have you tried to start manually Security Center?

    I suggest you temporary disable the security software on the computer and then check if the problem persists.

    Important: 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 do not 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 during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  • Windows updates driver Nvidia and Nvidia Control panel stops working

    I was choosing to update the video card myself with the latest driver 310.09 being installed, and everything was fine. Then I started having "failed to initialize Nvidia Control Panel, you don't have permission to access or access denied errors at startup and to the continuation of the investigation I found updated encrypted files (c:\windows\system32\nvcpl.dll being one of many) and a Nvidia driver recent 311 already in the section updates installed windows from the control panel."

    Now, I have no Nvidia Control Panel, but I managed to roll back the driver to 310.09, but still with no possibility to install driver 314, or remove any previous version using uninstallers. I'm stuck in the middle with nowhere to go!  I want my back Nvidia Control Panel, and I hate error messages!

    Intel i5 processor 3770 3.4Gig

    GT video card 620

    Windows 8 Pro / clean install

    16 gig Ram

    1 T HD

    Problem not solved! When I did the screen went black, with me ends up having to re-start, the machine came back, and before I can do anything Windows back to or downloaded 311 driver and I'm at square one. Impossible to uninstall any Nvidia or reinstall anything Nvidia.

    If Windows will update a 3rd party driver why it deletes the old software first. Now I have the supplied Windows driver 311 mixed with the old Nvidia provided 310 software update! It's no wonder that nothing works!

    Sorry to here that you still have the problem...

    When you have imported the registry key, you probably do not change the permissions on the registry keys.

    Reach

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\BFE

    Right click on it -permissions

    Click ADD and type

    Everyone, and then click ok

    Now click on all

    Below, you have the permission for users

    Select full control, and then click ok

    DO the same for the "reg" MPSSVC so key which also returns access denied.

    Make sure also canceled to start service to invite you, he should be admin/elevated command prompt.

    Also, you may need a system restart after changing the permissions on the registry key.

  • Lenovo A828t update Security Center language is Chinese!

    I use Lenovo A828t months

    I found the Security Center has been automatically updated to change the blue icon with a green icon.

    The problem is that its language is Chinese and I can't use now.

    Can you support?

    Thank you very much.

    The model A828T is a TD-SCDMA and for the Chinese market only. The official firmware is also planned for the Chinese market only. The reason of security updated to a full Chinese version.

    I don't know which firmware you are running... Chinese version personalized or modified with GAPPS (google services) added or you have added the GAPPS for yourself...

    .... Bottom line > you can't upgrade to the latest English version with the current firmware.

    I'm sorry.

  • Security alert indicates the auto update turned off; Control Panel says it's. Huh?

    Every time I restart Windows XP Professional, I get a security alert saying that the automatic updates of windows must be activated. When I ask that it be lit, the answer is that it can't: go to control panel. When I go into the Control Panel, it says that the automatic updates is already turned on. When I try to check my status update, I get no results. I was not asked by Windows if we can download any type of update for several months. I have to be sure that my system is up to date and that automatic updates is enabled and functional. Thank you.

    I have windows Vista and my laptop does the same thing. After what seemed like hours of trying everything suggested, I decided to clear out all temporary files (again), turn off and unplug the laptop and removed the battery and wait 10 minutes.  After 10 minutes, I've replaced the battery, plugged in and restarted my laptop.  After all, was up and running, I tried Windows update again, and my laptop updated with NO PROBLEM.
