Hello Walter,
Go to Windows Update, do an Express scan, and apply all offered updªtes
http://update.microsoft.com ;
Once that is finished, can you verify the update installs? There are many
pre-requisite files which are needed from windows update and signature update
with windows defender will fail until you have these files.
--
Windows Defender records, in the System event log, at the time of the scan,
the precise path and filename of each detection.
So--right click My Computer, choose Manage.
Click on the plus sign in front of Event Viewer.
Click on the System events log, in the left column.
Click on View (top menu), filter.
Click the down-arrow at the right of Event Source, and choose "WinDefend."
Click apply, click OK.
Now--in the right window, scroll back to the time of the original detection,
and look for yellow-triangle marked records for those original detections.
Double-click a record in the right window to open it and see the full
detail. You can cut and paste, via a button--back to this thread.
Look for yellow triangle entries that give the precise path and location of
what was detected.
Could you supply some information on what your OS is, firewall, anti-virus,
other RTP programs, WD engine, etc?
