Solve : having a problem with Miccrosoft Security Essentials? |
|
Answer» for some unknown reason it seems to have stopped working. Usually, it automatically downloaded updates throughout every day but a few days ago I realized that I hadn't noticed the PROGRAM's icon in the lower right corner of my screen for a few days time. today I re-started my computer but still didn't see the program's icon so i opened the program's interface window and found it said it was switched off. i tried restarting it but it would start and gave an error message. I went into the control PANEL to try to restart it but it still wouldn't start so I uninstalled the program and reinstalled a copy I had gotten from their website today (which may be a different copy than was previously INSTALLED). Now the program still won't start, won't update. I don't understand the problem. If it matters, I also have Online Armor program installed. I often don't know what is "safe" or not safe and so if something pops up while I'm working and I wasn't trying to open or install something then I usually block it.You don't have to be on-line for your computer to be getting updates on a lot of different programs. Is it possible that you're blocking the updates? Have you added any security programs lately that would conflict with MSE?Thanks for your reply I think I might have fixed the problem. I turned off the Online Armor and then was able to turn on and update Microsoft Security Essentials. I guess there must have been a conflict with Online Armor that it wasn't letting the other program operate PROPERLY |
