    Help with ThetaVestaJEA.exe file

    In mscofig, where you said service is listed - disable it. Also check Startup files, if anything strange is there and disable it. Then run ADVcleaner and Malwarebytes.

    But first you should check VirusTotal, like Golden suggested

  3. How do i turn on my windows security services on Windows 10.

    Hi Edehomon,



    I realize the inconvenience you are experiencing with turning on Windows Security services with Windows 10. I will certainly help you.



    This issue might occur if third party security has disabled Windows Defender services.



    I suggest you to follow the steps below to

    To assist you better, please provide us the information below:

    • When you say that "windows security services are turned off", have you installed any third party security software on the computer?
    • Are you getting any error message?

    I suggest you to try to turn on Windows Defender by following steps below and check if it helps.

    1. Click on Search bar?

    2. Type "Settings" without the quotes in the search bar and click on it.

    3. Then click on Update & security.

    4. Click on Windows Defender.

    5. Then try to turn on the Windows Defender services.

    Note: If a third party security software is installed on the computer, then it will disable Windows Defender.



    Please get back to us with an update on turning on Windows Security services with Windows 10, we will be happy to help.



    Thank you.

    windows defender & security center services keep turning off


    Are you running any other AV or did you have one running in the past? If you didn't use an uninstaller for the AV, then the remnants of it could be causing the problem. Normally any time you install an AV it disables Defender by default.

    If you are getting any error codes please list those, that will be helpful in helping you.

    As torre suggested, might be a good idea to do a reset or even a reinstall.

    Reset Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums

    Windows 10 - Clean Install - Windows 10 Forums

    There are also some suggestions listed here:
