Windows Defender keeps cutting

Earlier my laptop was infected by several Trojan virus. He had himself introduced mainly in - C:\Windows| System32 | Syshost file. Between AVG, and what was left of my Windows security operation, he never became a full blown virus. In any case, I'm tired of playing with it, so I reformatted.

One of the interesting features of this particular strain was that it disabled Defender and made it impossible to turn back. After reformatting, I activated quickly, ran anti-Malware, AVG, and everything I've been asked to do. The virus has been recognized and quarantined.
Everything worked very well. No evidence of a virus or malware and believe me, I'm just checking.
Today, I got the message that Windows Defender encountered an error (I forgot the number). I am once more unable to turn it on manually. When I try to get 'Windows Defender encountered an error' (#0x800106ba).
Everyone has no indication on the right markets, and in what order I should go?
Thanx

Hello

You had before AVG as defender arrested; and this time, too.

He had to be stopped by moy.

Some information on Defender for you.

If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.

There is nothing to worry.

Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.

  • I can not access my Webroot AntiVirus & spyware protection to enable it as my security provider. Windows defender keeps "takeover." How can I fix?

    For more than a month now, I get in the right corner that Webroot Software would I discover my notifications after his scan but when I click on view the Notifications, I get the mini screen that says loading... Please wait, but nothing happens.  I can leave it there all day and nothing happens!

    I tried every way I know how to enter Webroot without success.  I just ignored it for a while, but now I get these red bombs of the Windows Defender Security of dangerous files. etc on my computer and run and scan.  I then noticed tonight that Windows is the security system ONLY of Anit-Virus and Spy Sweeper running on my computer when I always chose my own 'System' - Webroot and don't remember that change at any time.

    It is of course the weekend and you cannot get technical assistance from them until Monday, but I need to know how to pass but Webroot and not to use Windows security.  When I try to change it, it displays the option 'choose' your own but not space on the page where to enter wht you have or offer search systems on your computer!  It makes me crazy!

    I also get a local saying JavaScript:0 VOID not only when I try to choose Webroot but when I tried to buy some goods on Nordstrom the other day.  I have accidentally about a month or two ago uninstalled or delete Java because I don't think I used it and less you have on your computer the better.  Well, I think I live by myself because when I tried to reinstall, I hit a snag and it won't download it without the original program under Windows.  If the two are related and how to help me with these questions?

    I hate IE9 and wish I could go back to IE8, but those days are over... I want to just get Webroot rear Protection as my main security and get return period of Java!

    Can someone help me?

    If you have Microsoft Security Essentials or AVG installed, you don't have to do a thing. These 2 are supposed to disable Windows Defender, because they have their own "defender". Running two defenders would conflict on the other and redundant.

    Start bittun > in the search box, type services > press ENTER > uac prompt > scroll down and look for Windows Defender...

  • I need to keep Windows Defender and Microsoft Security Essentials installed?

    My question is, what do I need to keep Windows Defender installed too, or I can uninstall it.

    I have Microsoft Security Essentials installed and it works fine. I am running Vista 64 bit with service PK. 2 and the Defender is installed under Vista. Before MSE I used Windows Live One Care until my subscription has expired and that they did not renew it. At that point, I finally installed MSE. Windows defender can be uninstalled? It seems to be an unnecessary element in my Security Center.

    Hello

    No it can't be uninstalled

    It is part of the vista operating system

    by default must disable MSE, it

    If for any reason any MSE has not disabled it read this;

    Why essential security keep turn off windows Defender?

    Hello

    Windows Defender features are included in MSE, defender of loading would be redundant.

    Windows Defender antispyware =

    MSE is antivirus + antispyware.

    Then think about MSE as Windows Defender with more added (which is).

    ===========================================

    Here's what I use and recommend:

    Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.
    Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven very reliable and compatible.

    Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.

    Prevx - Home - free

    Windows Firewall

    Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

    Protected IE - mode

    IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

    I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
    (Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)

    Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
    (Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).
    http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

    Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

    Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

    Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
    a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.
    http://www.prevx.com/   <-->
    http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp  <-->

    PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
    http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
    Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
    a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

  • Windows Defender and the malicious software removal tool not doing anything to protect against malware, why Windows Update keep harassing upgrade us on a regular basis?

    I'm a computer technician who makes a TON of virus remove money from Windows computers.  Two-thirds of my tasks of repair involving the elimination of viruses from Windows and trying to fix the Internet Explorer, the worst browser known to humanity.

    I have a question about Windows Defender and the malicious software removal tool.  These are two programs entirely worthless, evidenced by the fact that computers with them installed still get infected of all viruses, Trojan and rootkit out there.  Clearly, if these two programs of malware Microsoft has done anything to protect your computer, it would have been without having to release still a THIRD tool antivirus, "security essentials" for Microsoft.   I'm not complaining — the way Microsoft Windows absorbs malware like a sponge, put a lot of money in my bank account. Please keep doing what you're doing... however...

    My question is, given that Windows Defender and the malicious software removal tool doing nothing to protect against malware, why Windows Update keep harassing upgrade us on a regular basis?

    If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
    scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
    resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be more difficult to detect as the
    cause.

    No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
    to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
    its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
    extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.
