Windows Defender is disabled by group policy
When I try to open Windows Defender programs or manage the Start Up I get the message that it is disabled by group policy.
The solution tells me that I need to contact the administrator. I AM the administrator. There is no other user on this computer. How can we | Difficulty this please
It is probably because you have installed an AV program or security that automatically turns off the Defender. What you use now and what others you have tried in the past since you have noticed that? Do you have it changed recently from something else? The program AV or seccurity does in general via Group Policy (I'm not sure exactly how). If this is the case, the deactivation is intentional and not a problem - if programs are running at the same time, they can cause conflicts, freezes, crashes, and all sorts of other problems. I know that Microsoft Security Essentials for this and I know there are others that are also (even if I don't have a list of who they are).
I hope this helps.
Thanks and good luck!

Using the same way, that I can not activate it because the box is disabled (through Group Policy).
Please help me solve this problem. Thanks in advance.
It's too bad the Answers MS deficient of remains of forums in that it does not prompt for any system information when a new question is asked, that's why we don't know anything about your system.
If that's what you see and you do not have it to yourself, your system is currently or has been infected by malware.
You can solve the immediate problems, but I would not use system restore to solve any problems your not specified, it (but it's up to you).
Here are the suggestions that you might see will not work (just so you don't waste your time) and then how actually to solve this problem.
The usual advice are something in the sense of "something has been disabled in the group policy...". ", and it is probably true that something has been disabled, but you know what something is and what it takes to do about it.
If you are using XP Home Edition, you will get away with advice to use the Group Policy Editor, because there is no Group Policy Editor in XP Home and that really doesn't tell you where to look in group policy, even if you run the Group Policy Editor.
You need a complete solution that works for all versions of XP and requires no hunting around in the Group Policy Editor or registry to find where things are that have been disabled.
Unless you have disabled these things on purpose, chances are good that your system has a malware infection. The malware knows what tools you use to try to find and remove, for the malware disables the things you are more likely to consume and prevents them from running if you can't find the malware and remove it.
If your system has this kind of affliction, all malicious software tools you currently use or have used failed to protect your system so that you can expand your horizons malware detection and prevention to prevent these kinds of afflictions in the first place.
The malware will be happy you trick into thinking that you need to so something drastic to fix your system - as a facility repair, system restore point or a total reinstallation of XP. This is what it would be like you, but these measures are not necessary.
You must solve the immediate problem of the tools does not, then scan your system for malware when you are finished.
No matter what kind of malware you've used analytical tools, they are unlikely to solve this problem, because they cannot tell if the changes made to your system have been on purpose (you or an administrator who makes them) or some malware changed them, so the analysis tools will let these things alone (it's usually a good thing).
If your system is afflicted in this way, there are probably other things that also do not work - like the registry editor, System Restore and the command prompt, so fix them all at once even if you have not discovered they are broken again.
These commands from registry removes the registry entries that are stop opening programs. Although the registry entries do not exist, these commands are safe to run and will work for all versions of XP.
Before making any changes to your registry, back up the registry with this free and popular tool:

If you click on administrative templates, add or remove templates do you have right to have these models:
CONF
Inetres
System
Wmplayer
sooperIf this isn't the case, you must add them as described above.
For example, if inetres does not appear in the models (so, you must add), you won't see any substance IE under Windows Components.
