Windows Defender Security Center -STANDARD HARDWARE SECURITY

Hey Greg,

Thanks for the quick reply. Will probably do it tomorrow. Any input on that Windows Defender statement?

"Standard hardware security not supported"

This means that your device does not meet at least one of the requirements of standard hardware security. "

Thanks, Rick.

FYI-Things seem stable right now. We'll see what happens. I don't get how EDGE could have been released with so many issues. As far as the latest upgrade; I had MS employees telling me they still use Windows 7 on their home PC's. That says "something."

 

Standard Hardware Security not supported

Hi Paul,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

We would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below to run hardware troubleshooter and let us know if that helps.

Type "Troubleshooting" in the
Windows Search bar and press Enter.

1. Click on "View All" in the top left corner.
2. This will display the list of troubleshooters which are built-in in the computer. You can click on Hardware and Devices from the list and you can run the troubleshooter.

Also I would suggest to check if there are any update pending with regard to drivers and to do so, please follow steps mentioned below.

1. Search for Device Manager in
   Windows search bar.
2. Click on Device Manager.
3. Check if there Yellow Exclamation Point in the list of drivers.

Make sure Windows is up to date.

Hope it helps.

Windows Defender has a red X and says service has stopped, please help

I am on Windows 8, and control panel security says Windows Defender is my anti virus and firewall.
