Security Center is off and won't be started

My Security Center alerts are always reminding to Turn it on. When I try to
Turn it on, it says "The Security Center Service can't e Started", when I run
Services, and try to Start Security Center from there, it says" Windows
coulde not start the security center service on local computer. error 1083:
the executable program that this service is configured to run in does not
implement the service."

what should I do?

RE: Security Center is off and won't be started

Perhaps you can find your answer via this link (it's a dutch forum) Just go
to the last item on this page. If you cant enter this site via the link go to
the non-member part and look for the discussion "HijackThis logs" and look
for the posted item by HHHH and go to the bottom of the page. Just make sure
that your service file is: "wscsvc"
Succes

Re: Security Center is off and won't be started


Click on 'run' (it's in accessories), type *services.msc* in the box,
then OK.

When the list of service's window opens, check to see that 'Security
Center' and 'Security Accounts' are both set to start Automatically. You
can do that by right clicking on the line and choosing properties.
Reboot/restart your computer and check to see if it's now working
properly.

Re: Security Center is off and won't be started

Had the same problem in shop and was able to fix it by looking at a working vista machine the thing I found was that the Log On Part of the Properties was set to the user and not a local service like it should be I changed that cleared out the stored passwords and Vista did the rest. Started working after that. Hope this helps .

RE: Security Center is off and won't be started

I have the exact same problem. I have tried all of the "solutions" suggested
in this thread and none of them have worked. I'm almost to the point of
re-installing Vista. Please, if there's anyone else out there with any other
suggestions PLEASE share. I really don't want to go through the hassle of
reinstalling my OS.
