    Hi Brenda,

    Have you tried performing the
    SFC scan? If not, we suggest that you perform it. SFC will scan, fix and restore any corrupted and missing system files.
    To run an
    SFC scan, follow these steps:



    • Run
      Command Prompt as Administrator.

    • Type
      sfc /scannow
      and hit
      Enter.

    Note:
    The scanning might take a while. Make sure that you
    DO NOT CANCEL
    the process.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Regards.

    Items skipped during scan

    I have recently been receiving the following message when I run the defender quick/full scans.

    "Items skipped during scan.

    The windows defender antivirus scan skipped an item due to exclusion or network scanning settings."

    I can't think of any recent changes I have made to my computer.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you.

    scanned documents

    Hello,

    By default, scans are saved in a Scans folder inside the Pictures. Here are the steps on how to get there:

    • Press Windows and type pictures
    • Click Pictures and double-click the Scans folder.

    Furthermore, we suggest that you repair your Word application by following the steps on this

    link    .

    Let us know how that turned out for you.
