registry fix

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

As per the description, I understand that you are facing some issues using Windows 10.

I would like to know some information.

• 
  What registry fix are you trying to run?
  
• 
  What is the exact issue that you are facing?
  
• 
  Have you taken a backup of all your data?
  

I would suggest you to take a backup of all your data before doing any changes in the registry keys. If you do any incorrect changes to the registry you won’t be able to boot the computer.

The windows security services can't be started error.

Hi Abijith,

I appreciate your efforts and time.

Do not worry, it can be fixed.

• Are you using any third party security software?
• Are you facing any other issues with Windows 10?

I suggest you to try the steps provided below and check if it helps.

If you find that Security Center is still not started and running as expected after you reconfigure and start Security Center and then restart your computer, you may be experiencing one or both of the following problems:

• Your computer is infected by malware.
• Your registry key is corrupted.

Try to run Microsoft Safety Scanner. It helps remove viruses, spyware, and other malicious software. It works with your existing antivirus software.
