• I try to run the security essentials and it tells me that I'm missing msvcp90.dll

  I try to run the security essentials, and he tells me that I'm missing msvcp90.dll. Same problem occurring with a real player has not re - install. How can I recover file?

  Hi BradleyMitchell,

  1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

  2 when was the last time it was working fine?

  3. what version of Real player installed on the computer?

  Msvcp90.dll error can be caused if the Visual C++ Library Runtime components are missing or corrupt on the computer.

  Method 1

  I suggest that scan you SFC on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

  The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows XP installation CD.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310747

  Method 2

  If the previous step fails, then install the Package redistributable Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 and check if it helps.

  Hi, when I change my wallpaper or display the taskbar then restarted windows 7 (asus laptop) taskbar autohide, and change wallpaper unwelcom why I don't

  Hello

  This who exactly are you referring to when you say "change unwelcom why I do?"

  If the taskbar is hidden, point to where you saw last it show again. If you don't remember where you saw it, try pointing to the bottom of the screen first, then to the sides or top of the desktop, if necessary. You may need to move the pointer almost off the desktop computer to show the taskbar.

  * Original title: Security Essentials

  I installed Security Essentials and it causes Defender to stop the run. The only way I can turn the Defender needs to restore my computer to before Security Essentials. I tried twice and got the same result.

  Security Essentials replaces the Defender?

  I am running Vista.

  Thanks Len H

  You are right.  MSE (Microsoft Security Essentials) in Windows XP, Vista and 7 can be used instead of Windows Defender.  They can not be activated at the same time.
