Why security essientials keep turn off windows Defender. ?
Why essential security keep turn off windows Defender?
Hello
Windows Defender features are included in MSE, defender of loading would be redundant.
Windows Defender antispyware =
MSE is antivirus + antispyware.
Then think about MSE as Windows Defender with more added (which is).
===========================================
Here's what I use and recommend:
Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.
Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven very reliable and compatible.Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.
Prevx - Home - free
Windows Firewall
Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)
Protected IE - mode
IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)
I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
(Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
(Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).
http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.htmlOr use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast
Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.
http://www.prevx.com/ <-->-->
http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp <-->-->PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.aspAlso get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.I hope this helps.

How to turn on windows Defender can not access
When I try to turn on windows Defender I get message saying Defender has been turned off.
Go to the Action Center and start from there. It only works if all other AV have been completely uninstalled. You will need to run McAfee MCPRT if you had formerly McAfee on your computer. I'll send the link, you can find him if necessary.

Im trying to turn on windows Defender manually
Why slope I turn on windows Defender manually? Is it because I'm trying to ruin the basics of Microsoft Security? Any HELP would be appreciated
MSE disables Windows Defender because it contains everything in Windows Defender and run them both at the same time can cause conflicts, freezes, crashes, or other problems. Leave Windows Defender disabled when you use MSE.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

Hello Steve,.
Welcome! Thanks for posting in the HP Support forum.
Usually, if you install the 3rd AV software part (for example, Kaspersky, Norton, McAfee, Tredn Micro...) it allows to disable Windows Defender. However you can do it manually.

Something in my system turns off Windows Defender.
Something in my system turns off Windows Defender once from time to time, and I have to keep back on.
I am running Windows XP and security programs I use are Microsoft Security Essentials, Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool,
Spybot Search and Destroy and Ad-Aware from Lavasoft.
I normally have all running at the same time, and with Spybot SD have also resident 'SD Helper' and 'Tea Timer"active.Any ideas what could cause this problem?
Hello
As you use Microsoft Security Essentials, the reason for this is that MSE has its own version of the Defender as part of its program.
Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.
Read this information about it:
"Windows Defender and Microsoft Security Essentials on Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP.
Q: I have to manually disable or uninstall Windows Defender, if I use Microsoft Security Essentials?
If Microsoft Security Essentials does not automatically uninstall Windows Defender on XP, you must manually uninstall Windows Defender through Control Panel of configuration/Add / Remove programs.See you soon.

Hi George,.
Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community and we can help you with your problem.
According to the description, you are facing problems with turning on Windows Defender. To help you to propose measures to solve the problem, I would appreciate if you could answer the following questions:
1. what security software is installed on the computer?
2 did you do changes on the computer before the show?
You must have security (anti-virus) software installed on the computer.
More than ONE cause of slow system, freezing injuries, programs not to work properly with Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) disables Windows Vista Defender as MSE has its own integrated version in Defender.
You can follow the steps in the article mentioned below and check if it works:
Error message when you run Windows Defender: «Error 0x800106ba»
