    Windows Defender can be used at the same time as AVG, McAfee, MSE or Norton.  This is maybe why it is turned off and the error code can be occcurring if you try to activate.

    If this does not answer your question please post back with more details.

    What do you use for your antivirus protection?  Windows Defender is not necessary if you use AVG, Microsoft Security Essentials, Norton or McAfee. These AV programs have their own antispyware component builtin and allows you to disable Windows Defender by design.

  • Publish with windows defender - error code 800106ba when I try to open Windows Defender

    I use windows vista sp2 32 bit op system.
    Windows Defender is set to automatic. but when I try to open windows defender, I get an error code 800106ba
    Please notify hw to enable this feature for protection.

    If you use another program (other than MSE) AV, Windows Defender may also be disabled. Examples of these other programs include but are not necessarily limited to: AVG, Kaspersky, Norton, McAfee, and Trend Micro.

    Hi the ball

    Kaspersky does not automatically turn off Windows Defender. However, it is recommended that, as usual, Windows Defender real-time protection is not enabled when Kaspersky is installed. Its a similar situation with Windows and Kaspersky firewall products that have built in firewall.

    I used Kaspersky products for several years and it has always been the case in my experience. I just tested with Kaspersky Internet Security 2012 race and I was luckily allowed to activate the protection in real time of the defenders of Windows and the Windows Firewall.

    I hope this helps.  :)

  • Cannot activate Windows Defender error Code: 0x800705b4.

    OT: Unable to turn on Windows Defender

    In Control Panel, click on "Windows Defender", it shows that it is off. Select the link "click here to start", but no response after I clicked on it. After a while, a pop-up message: timeout expired. (Error code: 0x800705b4)

    In Control Panel, click on "Windows Defender", it shows that it is off. Select the link "click here to start", but no response after I clicked on it.

    If you have another program that contains its own version of Defender is the case, for example Microsoft Security Essentials antimalware installed, it will disable Windows Defender.  It's normal.

    What software antivirus, security, etc. you have installed?

  • Windows Defender error code: 0x800705b4

    I try to activate Windows Defender on your desktop current nine to run Windows 8. When I try to turn it on I get error: 0x800705b4, cooperation has expired. What's wrong?

    Aaron,

    I found this.

    The fix is for Vista - I think that it is probably useful for Windows 8; so Windows 7 has been built on Vista and then Windows 8 was built on Windows 7.  The core of the operating system is always "there".

    Windows Defender - impossible to activate the fix

    This is a fairly easy procedure - don't forget to launch the window 'command prompt' as 'administrator '.

  • may depend on windows Defender, error code = 0x800700ff

    Hi all

    Appreciate your help...

    Thank you!

    Best rgds,

    VIC

    If you have Microsoft Security Essentials, AVG, McAfee, Norton, etc. installed, they have a conflict with Windows Defender, or turn it off.

    Microsoft Security Essentials has its own integrated version of the defender and it automatically disables the version of Vista in Windows Defender.

    If it's not:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Defender-on-or-off

    Turn Windows Defender on or off the information on the link above of Microsoft.

    Hope the above explains the common compatibility issues with Windows Defender and other security programs.

    See you soon.

    Vista SP1 or SP2 installed yet? (just a question, NOT a recommendation)

    Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself.

    1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

    2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

    3. After completing some you have a copy of your handy product key, uninstall Norton 360, LiveUpdate and all Norton Add ons via Control Panel | Programs | Uninstall a program (or Control Panel |) Programs and features, if you are using the classic view).

    4 IMPORTANT! -Online activate Windows Firewall immediately after the restart.

    NB: Now you're "working without a net": no to ANYTHING else online (e.g., navigation, reading e-mail, chat) until you have completed step #7 below!

    5. right click on the file that you saved in step #1 above, and then select run as administrator.  DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

    6. do a clean install of Norton 360 2010 using your product ID & reboot: http://www.symantec.com/norton/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20080514162318EN

    TIP: Do not activate or install additional modules of Norton (for example, Norton Anti-Phishing) immediately.

    7. manually and repeatedly run LiveUpdate until you get a prompt "no update more".

    8 test cycle.

    NB: Only one 1 firewall must be enabled at any time. If the Norton Personal Firewall is activated (after you have reinstalled N360), Windows Firewall must be turned off.
