What other security programs you have running? Many, MSE, McAfee, etc., stop the Windows Defender if they have the same function built in. It would be normal and appropriate.

  • Microsoft Security Essentials disables Windows Defender in Vista?

    Can error 0x800106ba on any attempt to open code I Defender. I also acquired McAfee at some point, but I uninstalled it hundreds of years ago but I still have the same error message whenever I try to open Windows Defender. Help, please

    It is not fair to McAfee posing problem with the Defender:

    Windows Defender:

    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 should automatically disable the version of Vista in Windows Defender.

    If it's not:

    Hello, just to be sure I have the correct information, Windows Defender lights not in Windows Vista with Microsoft Security Essentials, as Essentials has its own version of the Defender.  The error code I received is the same as the previous posts in which is: 0x800106ba.  Again, just to be sure, I understand, I should stop trying to turn Defender because Security Essentials has covered it, okay?

    Q: is - this installation of Microsoft Security Essentials (XP/Vista/7) disable Windows Defender?
    A:
    Microsoft Security Essentials should disable Windows Defender in Vista and Windows 7, and then uninstall it from XP. In some cases, this does not happen automatically.
     

    Q: what happens if I do not disable or uninstall Windows Defender, if I use Microsoft Security Essentials (XP/Vista/7)?
    A: If Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows Defender are both running, your system can know the performance degradation and other problems caused by the conflict of two services providing real-time protection at the same time.

    None

    Defender is part of the system operatring vista and can be downloaded and reinstalled

    If you are having problems, I suggest that you borrow a microsoft vista retail dvd so you do not have one and do a repair install upgrade to replace all system files missing or corrupt

    I thought maybe some sort of virus, but I deleted the partition, re-created, formatted, it twice and reinstalled vista.  Same thing is happening. Have searched online to find answers, see a lot of people with this issue, but have not seen one resolution, other than the downgrade to XP because it only seems to happen with XP.

    Anyone has any ideas where I should post this, or where to start to a solution?

    Someone told me because of vision problems, I was able to get a free upgrade to Windows 7. Someone knows something about it?

    There is no free upgrade to Windows 7 for Vista users unless otherwise stated by the manufacturer of your system.
