Hello,

I got this error message after I turn off Windows defender via GPO in AD on
a Vista PC:
windows defender application failed to initialize 0x800106ba?

I am looking for solution for the error.

Scenario:
AD 2003
Vista enterprise installation
Office 2007 installed
McAfee installed
McAfee firewall is installed
Windows defender can be turned off

Disabling the Windows defender GPO results in the error after rebooting the
system:
windows defender application failed to initialize 0x800106ba?

Any idea would help.

Thanks
 
McAfee is problem. They are known for this with windows Defender.

Ok, I am sorry I am not a computer wiz but, you said McAfee is the cause. How
do you fix it?? Can't repair it Microsoft won't let me.
 
I don't have mcafere on my computer and it gives me the error but the code
it gives me is 8000408
I'm running windows vista and I have avg free
 
i got this error message 0x800106ba after i turned on my laptop, which says
service can not run.

frankly, i have exprecienced this problem when i installed McAfee antivirus.
If McAfee is the problem as you suggesting, well why microsoft is
recommending it to use?

Microsoft makes no specific recommendation about McAfee antivirus.
McAfee is the one making the recommendation.

recommend the virus software - when you go to windows security centre and
click on 'find virus software' it shows mcafee as one of the providers...
