Windows Vista/Defender telling me that I have multiple problems after update

I use Windows Vista.  I've had problems since getting an update a few days ago.  Windows Defender is constantly telling me that I have multiple problems - if nothing has changed outside the Windows Update.  When I try to open my Convert (bought) the DVD program, it displays the message from the Red Cross stating that "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file.  May not be the appropriate permissions for access you to them.  I should have all permissions on a computer at home.

It would help if you gave the details of the messages you see Windows Defender.

It could be that you have a fake antivirus infection similar to this:

A symptom of this would be applications for payment activate the software.

    Updates that took place after the restore point have been removed, if these programs need to be updated again (it is the restoration of the operating system - in fact, that's why it works).  It works simply on the updates of Windows, but on the updates or installations of any kind (except changes to the data).  This is not a problem and should completely (and was mentioned in my post above).  Reinstall the updates and you'll be fine here.

    System Restore may take a long time.  L ' turn off in the Middle can cause problems - problems, different problems and even serious problems.  If updates are still there (and you encounter other problems which essentially the same that you started with most of the time), then the system restore did not work or was not correctly filled (but it make some changes if some of your edits are no longer working at least partially and perhaps even completely) (, but just was not given enough time).  I suggest you try again and this time give him more time to finish - say a few hours at least, or maybe more, given the current circumstances.  To do this before you perform any relocation above because they will be lost again.

    I don't understand the issue of e-mail messages.  What do you mean by 'coded '?  What email program are you using?  I suspect that this may be the result of turning off the system before restoring it finished (or the problem with the system restore if it worked actually).  A successful restoration will solve I hope that whatever it is as well - but if we cannot get this to work, we need to abandon this effort at least for the moment.

    If this does not work, then I suggest you follow the advice of Malke (assuming that you have not already) and explain your efforts with the restoration of the system and the results that occurred as well so that they fully understand the situation.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • I'm on windows vista, the review said that I have a file that uses disk space

    I 'm on windows vista the healthcheck says I have a file using disk space, the file name is windows.old, if I just delete this, then it will hurt my laptop, I looked at the file and there are thousands of articles, my laptop is slow, what I'm doing. My system is 32 bit. Will someone please advise me in laymans terms I'm not exactly a pro with laptops.


    The Windows.old subfolder contains all of the files from a previous installation of Windows. If you copied all your personal data of the user subfolder of windows.old. Then, it is safe to delete.
    And, since it is the Windows Update forum, which focuses on the update of the issues, this question must be validated in a more appropriate forum. Such as the

  • Windows vista x 64 comes back to the basic theme after update

    Greetings.

    Last night, I shut down my computer and helped my computer complete the necessary updates. However, during the update, I have no idea WHY MY THEME EXCHANGE this MORNING AFTER I POWERED on MY COMPUTER. IT IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED AFTER AN UPDATE.

    And you know what is more ironic, I CAN not EVEN FIND THE AERO THEME ANYWHERE IN customizations or anywhere in the computer! Mental right?
    I am very angry, because working on the base is very laborious and inefficient; the tabs are not the same, the interface is not as flexible and quite frankly takes a lot of getting used to.

    HOW CAN I GO BACK TO AERO AND ESPECIALLY WHAT HAS HAPPENED?

    Sorry for his appearances in anger, I'm very frustrated by this situation and I don't have the time to deal with this right now.

    Thank you

  • Taskbar Windows Vista Home Premium, changed to the classic color scheme after update.

    For some reason any my menu of the taskbar and start suddenly changed to the classic system of windows.

    I am running Windows Home Premium and have attempted to reverse to the standard vista scheme through customization > window color and appearance, but has only Windows Classic as an option.

    I also right click on the bar of tasks and disappeared on properties in this way, it shows the taskbar as the standard version of Vista but the taskbar is still in basic.

    I used the diagnosis of DirectX tool tests to see if an error has caused this, but it does not revisit what whatsoever, and my laptop recognizes that it runs Windows Home Premium.

    Also tried to restart, but nothing changes...

    The only thing that I think may be linked to this is after a recent update of the last time that I closed my laptop, but I don't see what update it was.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
