  • 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.

  • Windows Update issues. Windows Defender can't check definition error code 0 x 80242017 - after Re Installing Windows Vista updates. ?

    After reinstalling Windows, everything works fine until it fails to install and download updates.
    After that it automatically installs updates, it shows updates that failed, I try again but then it does not download or install updates everything at all!

    -J' have a lot of updates going back to years ago, it lists the Versions updated even with another publication date, what I need to download and install all?
    I should manually, choose to install only the latest versions?

    -Windows Defender error 0 x 80242017:
    Windows Defender had always worked without any problems before re-installing.

    -J' already downloaded Microsoft Fix it: it scans and fixes a few problems, but there is always an impossible problem to fix 'recent installation updates problems'

    Also, checked if Software Licensing service work but couldn't find it under services - this could be a related issue? or is located somewhere else?

    I now use the computer and everything else seems normal.

    -little background information:
    Decided to do a re-complete installation of Windows Vista on an old computer which was the minimal use (we tried to update every month)
    Why I decided to reinstall:
    During a session to install the fix, it never moved beyond the "installation of update 1 of ' it lasted there for several hours, after losing patience I Gilles downwards and then the problems started a week later.

    I was unable to use it without problems, sometimes I would get blue screens, get stuck checking DMI disc read error, or it wouldn't start at all. Also seems to be some registry problems.

    In the end, I was able to start but I was able to browse the internet. When I opened all the files, the window came out white, but he said that the number of files it contains.  Could not even open the start menu and was unable to use the restore system and when I access it from F8 it says it is running in a limited Diagnostic State and all restore points have disappeared.

    Last good known Configuration or Check Disk doesn't help. I reinstalled after that.

    .. Although old, The Works pretty good Comp for the people here who are going to use it for their homework and light internet use as my niece when here after school.

    I'm not a Tech person that's why I posted for help here = \

    Thank you in advance, all advice appreciated!

    1. all both installed on 22/09/2014

    2. it is not available

    3. 2 or 3 hours maybe? I downloaded webroot only after that I thought I was able to install the updates that lasted a few hours.

    4 definition version: 1.185.885.0 created 22/09/2014

    What happens when you try to update Defender via the UPDATE on the update tab button (for example, another error of 0 x 80242017)?  [DOCUMENT TEST/NOW]

    When you run a manual check of updates, is an update of definitions of Defender offered as an optional update and if so, allows it to install?

    Note: A computer can become infected a few seconds of being connected to the internet without a valid antivirus application installed. It of a very good chance that you see the effects of an infection being a certain type and that demand for Webroot is not installed or working properly.

    This thread you latch on is almost 2 years.

    Should have started a new one for you.

    To answer your question:

    > Do I need advocate? I use AVG free Edition 2012 and Wise registry cleaner.

    1 AVG is supposed to close Windows Defender. This is because AVG has his own Defender. To have 2 defenders on the same machine will create conflicts.
    Thus, you don't need Windows Defender if you moy.

    2. I HIGHLY recommend that you uninstall the registry cleaner.
    In the hands of the users done computers, registry cleaner could be useful.
    In the hands of novice computer users, it's a time bomb.
