Windows Defender in Vista

Hello my windows Defender is no longer works - the following error returned 0x800106ba however, I believe that this has happened when I changed a service.  No one knows what services are required to run the defender of the window?  I tried to uninstall, but WD seems to be part of Vista.

McAfee may have done automatically without your knowledge or approval.  This is perhaps why it does not work.  Check with McAfee technical support to see if this is the case with the product you have and updates you have installed - then found know with certainty whether it is in fact their product that did (and this could explain why the procedures I gave you do not work because it is disabled by the McAfee software that I do not know how to check-) , but they do.

BTW, you should run only one program AV at the same time on your system.  Running more than one can cause crashes, confilicts, freezes and other problems.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

  • 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:

    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.

    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?

    Hello

    Yes; Microsoft Security Essentials should disable Windows Defender for the reasons you mentioned.

    If she didn't turn it off, you should manually have to do it anyway.

    This information explains Microsoft explained:

    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.

  • Cannot start Windows defender in Vista

    Windows Defender does not start

    Hello

    What is the exact error message you get when you try to start Windows defender?

    You can follow these methods:

    Method 1: Check if the Windows defender service is running on the computer.
    a. Click Start, type services in the start search box and then click on Services in the list programs.
    b. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.
    c. double-click the Windows Defender service and then in the startup type box, click Automatic.
    d. click OK.
    e. make sure that the service is set to automatic and started.

    Method 2: Disable any security software on the computer and try to turn on windows defender and check.

    Important: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable
    your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you
    are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  • Minor problems with Windows Defender in Vista Home Premium 64...

    Hi, I have a problem with the Defender, it seems that the program is updated, but when I open the 'color of program' Defender is orange instead of green.
    To search for "new definitions", he asks, I'm taking this step and then the color is orange, so there must be something wrong with the program.

    There is no error code.

    I use a HP Pavilion Elite with Vista Home Premium 64, and I use Microsoft Security Essentials such as AV and WF.

    Windows Update seems ok.

    Can someone fill me on this one please.
    best regards Carlo

    BTW; my native language is Dutch thanks for the effort...

    You do have a problem that you have to worry.

    Microsoft Security Essentials has its own integrated version of the defender and would normally disable Vista Defender.

    If you continue to have problems with the Vista Defender, turn it off:

  • How to remove Windows Defender from Vista?

    Anyone know how to remove Windows Defender? It is not on the list of programs that can be uninstalled. When I try to remove it from the tree, I get a message that only a "TrustedInstaller" can remove it.

    It's been nothing but trouble I got my new PC in August. I spent in Avast and MalwareBytes, but I can't stop the system to get scans in tenacious Defender. I wanted to get rid of it because it will not update install. It keeps telling me that there are updates available, but the progress bar comes in with a small piece of the execution and the stalls.

    Updates Windows continues to tell me it is another Defender update available and also stops at install.

    Looks like Microsoft could do a better job of coordinating its products. I'm ready to throw the new computer and become a ludites.

    Help!

    I uninstall Norton before that I installed Avast. I went to 'Services' and 'arrested' Defender. Then I went to 'Properties' and 'Disabled' Defender. This should at least stop notifications. You can't repeat to you, I got it.

    I can not install windows defender.

    Thanks for the reply, I've had systems both Norton and McAfee on my computer in the past and I'm afraid that some root or a part of the McAfee program is always subject.  After going through the process of uninstalling before installing the SP Seccurity Essentials I saw signs of him and I tried to get rid of it by following all the various suggestions.  I even bought an announced program that claims to be able to do the job (not true).  Let me ask you one more thing, a total system restore would do the job?  Also moving to Windows 7 at this time would do the trick?  Thank you in advance, I have all my personal and purchased programs and files ready just in case it came to that.  I am and will always be a loyal user of Microsoft and supporter just as Microsoft has treated me.
