    Microsoft Security Essentials on Windows 7


    For past week, the program has changed, every time it detects something a panel pops up up saying no action needed has been cleaned, but then MSE turns itself off computer slows down and it says computer needs to restart to complete cleaning, do that and then MSE is still turned off takes over 10 minutes for it to restart clicking turn on button.

    Almost everytime It restarts it gets the same trogan on detected virus's click to remove then requires restarting, so it can be up to 50 minutes before i actually get back to windows 7 screen, this has become such a slow computer and it says this when I'm typing emails and it slows down and freezes the screen.

    :)

    Windows 10 Windows Defender versus Microsoft Security Essentials

    Hi Bryan,

    Microsoft Security Essentials was upgraded to Windows defender and it was a default security software from Windows 8. You cannot have both as they are one.

    Since you get this annoying popup at the startup i suggest you to disable any Microsoft Security Essentials entries in Startup tab.

    • Open the Task manager. by pressing Press CTRL+Shift+ESC.
    • click on Startup tab
    • Right click on Microsoft Security Essentials entry and click on Disable.

    Restart the computer and check if that helps.
