Windows Defender error 126: the specified module could not be found

How to fix Windows Defender on Windows 7?

For some time now, Windows Defender no longer works. I can't install new updates of definition and the service cannot be started. If I try to manually start the Windows Defender service, there is an error message:

"Error 126: the specified module could not be found.

However, I can launch the GUI of C:\Program Files\Windows Defender Defender. However, I tried to download the Windows Defender from Microsoft, but the installer launches because it is said that Defender is already part of Windows 7 x 64.

I'm really looking for a way to get Windows Defender to rework.

First of all, it's what I already know and what I don't want:

  • I don't want to disable Windows defender, I want to make it work again
  • I have no antivirus uninstalled or disabled Windows Defender software, the module really seems to be corrupted (I am software engineer)
  • I don't want to reinstall Windows or use the backup, because I don't know how far I have to go back
  • Windows Defender can be removed from the menu of functions and software, because it is part of the operating system
  • I do not have MSE installed, tried to install it, haven't changed a thing

Any solution to solve this is appreciated. Advanced solutions (Registry hacks, enveloping, manual installs, work...) Welcome!

Kind regards

I was able to fix this on my own. It seems that the registry has been damaged (as I thought).

Changed the DisplayName property is property in the register of "Windows Defender" to "@%ProgramFiles%\\Windows Defender\\MsMpRes.dll,-103" which in reality should not be the cause of the problem, however, the DisplayName property original of the resource file.

ServiceDll property have been replaced in the registry of

in fact, which solves the problem. WIndows Defender is now in service yet. Updates can also be installed again.

    In addition to what offers Syed, you could try and update your video card driver.

    Go to the website of the manufacturer of your video card and download the latest driver for your video card model.

    Or you can go to the computer manufacturer and seeif he is and he's driving for your computer updated model.

  • I have this RunDLL error. There was a problem starting O:\Windows\system32\sshnas.dll the specified module could not be found.

    I don't see any change, but it's annoying.

    This file is a Trojan horse. The Trojan horse is set to run at startup but the file is missing now and that's why you get the error. You have removed the malware, or your antivirus/antispyware program did. In all cases, a reference has been left in the boot file. You can remove the reference by managing your startup.

    Because you had a piece of malware, the chances are too high you had others. It would be a good idea to scan with your antivirus with updated definitions and a good software like MalwareBytes antimalware program ' Antimalware (MBAM) from http://www.malwarebytes.org . The program is free. (There is a paid version, but you don't need to buy it to remove the malware).

    Once you are sure that your computer is now clean, rest boot entry you can delete:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: msconfig and when it appears in the results area above, right-click and choose 'run as administrator '.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue. Then see what is on the Startup tab. You don't need to restart immediately, but next time you do, you will get a dialog box saying that you have used the utility. Usually in Vista/Win7 it will be blocked by Windows Defender and you will need to enable it so you can then check the box that says in effect, "don't mind to this subject again".

    This message came only when a user connects.  I was not able to find any assistance to this problem anywhere.

    This file is linked to your nVidia video card.  You can do one of three things:

    1. go to nVidia, download the driver for your card (look in the Device Manager (start > run > devmgmt.msc > OK) for the model) and install the latest driver.

    2. right click on an empty space on your desktop, choose Properties and then go to settings > advanced and find the place to disable the tray icon (you'll really have to have anyway).

    3. download Autoruns, install it and let it complete the scan, click the 'Connect' tab and look in the right column for the entry that includes c:\windows\system32\nvmctray.dll, uncheck the box at the left end of the line and restart.  If you can't find it in the 'Connection' tab, select the "all" tab and use the search on the file menu.

  • What is this error? Error loading c:windows\mcycol40.dll the specified module could not be found

    Windows XP is giving the following error message and there is NOTHING to be found anywhere on this subject.  Help

    RUNDLL

    Error loading c:windows\mcycol40.dll

    the specified module could not be found.

    It is sometimes easy to get rid of the error message by doing something like disable the startup item in msconfig (if you can still find), but I suggest you fix the problem and difficulty not only the symptom of the problem by simply deleting the startup message.
    I would also not recommend you start digging in the registry to try to find the startup item and remove it unless you have a backup of your system or at least a backup of your registry, because there is no 'Cancel' or 'quit without saving changes' option in regedit.  If you make a mistake, that's all.
    These ideas relieve 'rapid' and sometimes risky of the symptom if they not even work at all, but they can't actually solve the problem.  Also, I'd be suspicious of ideas that begin with the words "try."  You don't need to try things, you need to fix things.  You don't need to try ideas that might work, you must do something that will always work all the time.
    Here are the detailed instructions that protect you and solve your problem in the 'right' way.
    There is very little. DLL files that should be loaded from the C:\WINDOWS folder and is not one of them.  If you can't find a good explanation for the name of the file in a Google search, re chances while your system is currently or has been infected with malicious software.
    A "Cannot find...". ', ' Failed to start..., "Could not load..." ». "Might not work... "" Cannot run ""error loading... ". "or"specific module could not be found"message at startup is usually related to the malware that has been configured to run at startup, but the referenced file has been removed after a malware scan, leaving behind him a startup item or the registry entry pointing to a file that does not exist.
    It might be a removal of malicious software or an application not installed.  The entry may have a curious looking name since it was probably generated at random when the malware was installed. If you search your system for the referenced file, you may not find.
    Windows attempts to load this file but cannot locate because the file has been deleted for most probably during an analysis of the malware. However, an orphaned associate of remainders of startup parameter or registry entry and tells Windows to load the file when you start or connection.
    So you should delete the referenced entry Windows stop trying to load or run the file. It may or may not be included in the registry, but you can find it.  Autoruns (see below) you get the elements no matter where it is.

    You must be sure to solve the problem and not just fix the symptom of the problem by simply relieving your message - system is not a fix (there is a difference).

    If you just locate and uncheck the item in msconfig, which disables the element but does not remove the reference to the element of false starting your computer.   The msconfig program is not a Startup Manager, that's a troubleshooting tool.  Disabling things in msconfig to put an end to the messages and think that your problem is solved is short-sighted and leave behind him a sloppy XP configuration.  Just disable the display of a start-up error message should not count as a 'solution' to the problem.
    If you are comfortable editing the registry, you can find and remove the reference directly from there or remove it using a popular third-party tool called Autoruns.  The problem can always be found in the registry well.
    Before making any changes to your registry by hand or with third-party tools, don't forget to first make a backup of the registry
    . There is no cancellation or exit without saving the option in regedit.
    Here is a link to a popular registry backup tool:
    You can also use the Autoruns to find the element of start remains little matter where he's hiding.  Autoruns does not install anything on your computer.  It will display all startup locations where the reference may be then you can turn it off or remove it completely.  Here is the download link for Autoruns:
    Run Autoruns.exe and wait that he at the end of the filling of the list of entries.
    When the Autoruns is finished scanning your system, it will say "Ready" in the lower left corner.  Autoruns can be a little intimidating to first if you have never seen it before because it displays a lot of information.  You are really interested only a few sections.
    The problem is usually to start the system or the user startup entries, then click the connection tab and see if the startup item is there.
    Scroll through the list and look for a boot entry associated files in the error message.
    If you can't find on the connection tab, look in any tab.
    You can also click file, search to search for logon, or any tab for all or part of the name of the element.
    Right-click on the offending entry and choose Remove.  If you are not sure what it is, you can simply disable, restart and if the problem is resolved and then remove the offending entry.  If you don't see it in Autoruns, you may edit the registry and remove the item from your startup folder it.  Autoruns shall display the same information however.
    Given that you had or have an infection, followed with this:
    Perform scans for malware, and then fix any problems:
    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.
    Restart your computer and solve the outstanding issues.
