| | RE: MSASCui.exe - Unable to locate component - reinstall MsMpRes.d Windows Defender won't start due to the error. I am scared to uninstall windows defender because it won't let me install it because I run Vista. Do you think that will be a problem?

| | Re: MSASCui.exe - Unable to locate component - reinstall MsMpRes.d Run the System File Checker. To do this, right click on Command Prompt (Start Menu\Programs\Accessories), and choose Run as Administrator. Copy the following, and Paste it after the prompt: sfc /scannow Press Enter. It will scan all your system files. It may take a few minutes. If things are okay, you are given the text message "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations". If things aren't okay, it will attempt to replace the bad system files.

| | RE: MSASCui.exe - Unable to locate component - reinstall MsMpRes.d It won't let me install. The program downloads, and then the installation wizard stops and says that I don't need to install the program because defender comes with Vista. There is no option to continue the installation, it just stops and closes. Is there any way I can just replace the missing file? I think it is MsMpRes.dll.
