• Security Center does not recognize the Windows Security Essentials

  Windows Security Essentials does not seem to register with Security Center.  Security Center reports that no Virus protection is enabled.

  1. I installed Windows XP 32 - bit WGA, activated the product and updated to SP3.

  2 security Center starts giving Windows security alerts for Virus protection, because none has been installed.

  3. I installed McAffee VirusScan.

  4 security Center stopped giving Windows security alerts for Virus protection.

  5. I uninstalled McAffee VirusScan.

  6 security Center has resumed giving Windows security alerts for protection against the viruses as before.

  7. I installed Windows Windows Security Essentials and rebooted.

  8. I tried to uninstall and reinstall Windows Security Essentials with no joy.

  Windows Security Essentials installation did not prevent Windows security alerts.  No Windows Security Essentials registry entry will appear in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Security Center and monitoring.  If Microsoft consider essential security to be an antivirus product, then how to Windows Security Essentials register with Security Center?

  I understand that this is an information and alert issue only.  I understand that Windows Security Essentials works actually ok.  I am particularly concerned by the reports.  It conditions my deployment of Windows Home Server.  Deactivation of surveillance or the alert is not a solution, just a poor quality work around.

  In a previous thread, the author of this question even abandoned and has not requested additional assistance.  An explanation was given (relevant for Windows 7), but no solution has been offered.  Windows XP has not been addressed.   http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/Windows_7-security/the-Security-Center-has-not-recorded-an-anti-virus/15ae2383-7ced-4850-A863-f7eb8cc90ee5

  I had the same problem for a while now (I'm on xp) and have searched the Internet for a solution but found nothing at the moment.

• is windows security essentials, a complete antivirus software

  I use only the windows security essential as long as my anti virus. is that what I should buy another program antivirus for the protection of the internet and full protection?

  How can I check my windows security essentials is original and how can check its validity be expired.

  MSE is a pretty good protection AV. And it is free :)

  If you downloaded it from MS - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-GB/windows/products/security-essentials its origin.

  If you click on its icon in the taskbar (green icon - all OK) tab will tell when it has been updated and the dates of virus definition file.

  Personally, for the protection of the VA, if you have the MSE installed, ongoing execution and up to date, then you are basically covered.

  However, make sure you have a firewall is installed and running and you can check the firewall here - https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2 , -click and run at least a test of common ports. You should see a green 'SUCCESS' and ports must be reported as STEALTH.

  However, not every AV program will catch all the viruses, so it is advisable to have a back up. Malwarebytes (free) is a good backup. Download, install and keep up-to-date (right click on its icon and 'run as administrator' to update) and manually run a scan of the PC from time to time or if you think that something can be a problem. Also after that update you can right click on any file and check trust individual, it's good for all the downloads you make (from known sites of security of course)

  Also, very important to keep your PC up-to-date both the W7 itself and the programs you use i.e. to keep FireFox, java, flash etc. updated IF you use them.

  Here is an article that meets your specific error message regarding updates:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/900936.  I am surprised that the error occurs with all the updates, but there may be a difference between them that causes the problem for definitions, but not for others.  I hope that this will solve the problem.

• Windows Security Essentials with Kaspersky Internet Security 2011

  Dear Forum members

  I just received email from Microsoft on Windows Security Essentials installation, but I have Kaspersky 2011, which was given to me by my Bank, those two would work together or should I just continue with what I have.

  I also have full Advance PC system supported and I just got my computer running the best I got a PC of my own work.

  I hope you can confirm that I can continue or if I can add the two together.

  Hope to hear from you all soon.

  You should never run more than one anti-virus program. Two
  at the same time can affect your performance and exposes you to the
  risk of conflicts between them.

  Which of the two should run? Personally, I think that Microsoft Security
  Essentials is the best choice.

  Regarding Advance PC support system, I strongly suggest that empty you
  She immediately.  Registry cleaning programs are all snake oil.
  The registry cleaning is not necessary and dangerous. Leave the
  Only registry and do not use any registry cleaner. Despite what a lot
  people think, and try to which suppliers of software record cleaning
  convince you to have used really doesn't hurt registry entries
  you.
  The risk of a serious problem caused by a registry cleaner by mistake
  delete an entry you need is much greater than any potential benefit
  It can have.

  Let me stress that neither me nor anyone else who warns the
  use of registry cleaners never said that they always cause
  problems. If they have always caused problems, they would disappear from
  the market almost immediately. Many people have used a registry
  cleaner and never had a problem with it.

  The problem with a registry cleaner is that it carries with it
  the risk of a significant problem. And since there is no
  benefits of using a registry cleaner, running that risk is a very bad
  good deal.

• Windows Security Essentials disabled

  I had Windows Security Essentials installed and running on my computer for a couple of years or more with no problems.   The Security Essentials icon in the taskbar at the bottom of my screen. Tonight, I was looking at on the internet.  When I clicked on a link to a site found by Google (almost any site) I would be redirected to another site - usually a site saying that there is something wrong with my computer.  When I looked for the icon Security Essentials in my taskbar, what it was not there when I went to my list of programs and open Security Essentials it would start but then immediately closed.  Any thoughts on what is happening?  On what do I do?

  It seems that you have inadvertently installed a browser redirection that has disabled Microsoft Security Essentials.

• I uninstalled Windows Security Essentials

  Recently, I uninstalled WSE as I already have McAfee and told two security systems could be dangerous? Now, I have a number of programs in my download folder with blue/gold screens on them. One of the ones I tried to re load is Realplayer (even with their help) and the desktop icon is back with this "shield" above and the program will not download any videos from any source. Is this security shield the problem and how do I get rid of him. I thought uninstall Windows Security Essentials that would result all existing blocks?

• analysis of missed Windows Security Essentials

  I have installed Windows Security Essentials on many PCs - Vista, XP and 7 - to my friends.  I noticed that when WSE is missing a scheduled scan (maybe the computer is turned off), it does not catch and preform analysis effectively.  For example, my Windows 7 PC is now in its 3rd week after missing a weekly scan.  WSE should not go ahead and perform the analysis subsequently, or is it necessary to scan manually?

• Windows Security Essentials

  I use Windows Security Essentials. The HP Total Care Advisor on my laptop says that I don't have current anti-virus protection of my machine.  Why the Advisor does not recognize the essential security elements?

  Hello

  HP Advisor will never recognize a Norton installation - if you are using another security software it will not be detected.  It's just a limitation of demand and nothing to be concerned about security wise.

• Windows Security Essentials problems

  I have MS Windows Security Essentials installed on a laptop running Windows 7 64-bit. As much as I know it worked very well, but in the last day or two, my system slowed down and I'm taken to strange Web sites when I click on the links for some of my research. I tried to open the Essentilas of security programs, it flashed open for a little while and then disappears. I uninstalled and reinstalled and get the same results. When I go through the control panel and check where it says the Service Windows security can not be started.

• Microsoft Security Essentials icon has disappeared from the bottom of my computer.

  How can I put the Microsoft Security Essentials icon back on the bottom of my computer? The icon disappeared. Several times the "speaker" icon disappears also. I look at previous posts and solutions, but I do not see the guests that are mentioned. Thank you.

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

  Sometimes the icon simply does not appear due to a start along with many other process resources and the part of MSE to load the icon to not load damage. If you can open MSE and it signals that all is good, it's probably what happened. Sometimes rebooting resolves it.

  If you do not use a login ID and password for Windows, this can happen more frequently, especially on an old PC, but even a new. Windows Journal and journal of back and sometimes the icon will appear for you.

  If the problem persists, you can consult the following discussions and see if it helps you to solve the problem.

• My date and time settings are set in Egypt and whenever updates of the laptop with microsoft server time, it increases of 1 h.

  My date and time settings are set in Egypt and whenever updates of the laptop with microsoft server time, it increases of 1 h.
  Recently in Egypt, changes of daylight has been cancelled and I guess that's the cause of the problem!
  Any ideas?

  If time was recently cancelled, you can go to your control panel:
  Panel-> data and time-zone (tab) >
  and uncheck the "automatically adjust clock for daylight saving time.

  Otherwise, you probably need to adjust your zone settings on your computer using Microsoft time zone Editor.
