  1. Windows Security and Updates does not work


    This problem started when my pc asks for administrator permission for a firewall that is used by the defender, me a dumb one click "no". Then I check if defender is still working and it is not. The scan for virus doesnot work, and the windows defender in services.msc are not running and refuses to do so. I can't also do windows update. How can I fix this?

  2. Windows 7 Ultimate (64) Security updates not installing.

    I have been having problems in installing the updates that I have listed below. For each update I attempted to install them individually but they would not install. I also downloaded the SURT 6.1 KB947821 v27. The problem has been going on now for about 2 months. (whenever the issue with the updates comes to mind I am never near my pc). Thank you in advance.

    Win10: windows update stuck at never ending loop ?

    When in win10:
    • Update&security -> Windows update -> Finding update... .... .... ....
    Planning to download the latest Win10.ISO (vers.1803) and manually update:
    - Then wait that my ordered new SSD arrives and clone the old HDD to it.
