    Windows Defender Blank Screen


    I started my computer, eventually, I have noticed that my windows defender is missing, so I run a malware scan, then I found 11 malicious activity, I don't know where they came from. I immediately remove it. But I have only fixed one problem which is windows update check is not working.

    I've been searching for 5 hrs none of them are working, I tried a lot of things to fix this.

    I tried this:

    sfc /scannow

    Scan with MSERT.exe

    :)

    Hi Virginia,

    Conflicts with third-party software and outdated graphic drivers are common contributors to the black screen issue that you're having. To isolate the said issue, we'd like to ask a few questions:

    • Are you getting any error messages before getting a blank screen?
    • Are you experiencing this when using a particular app?
    • Were there any changes made on your computer settings prior to this issue?

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you refer to this
    article
    which talks about the steps you can take to resolve blank screen errors.

    We'll wait for your response and assist you accordingly.
