Vista - Windows Defender is turnt off and antivirus (AVG) not recognised.

09-02-2007

My securitycenter tells me that i do not have an antivirusprogram.

I have installed AVG-pro, which was recognised, but now not anymore....

Securitycenter also says that Defender is not running, trying to activate,
but doesn't start.

When i run defender it says its turnt on....

Who knows how to set things good again.

no errormessages are produced...

Thanks in advance,

Roche

You could try this:

Right-click Command Prompt (in Start Menu\Programs\Accessories) and choose
Run as Administrator. Type (or Copy and Paste) the following command:

winmgmt /verifyrepository

Press Enter. If the system returns "WMI repository is not consistent", type
this command:

winmgmt /salvagerepository

Press Enter. The first time you run this it will fail. (It will issue stop
commands to the services causing it to fail, saying, "A stop control has
been sent to a service that other running services are dependent on"). It
might take a couple minutes for the services to shut down.

Run the last command again. You may have to run it 3 times before it finally
runs and completes on its own.

Hi dean-dean

I have the same problem and your fix does not resolve in my system.

After type winmgmt /verifyrepository the message said: "WMI repository
IS consistent"

What can I do?

ps: i'm sorry for my bad english

You could try this:

Right-click Command Prompt, and Run as Administrator. Type (or Copy and
Paste) the following commands, pressing Enter after each one:

net stop winmgmt
cd %windir%\system32\wbem
ren repository repository.old
net start winmgmt

This will rebuild the Repository, and by extension, rebuild the Vista
Security Center. You may have to restart your computer to see a change.

Hi!

When I type <-ren repository repository.old-> The message said " The
archive already exist with same name or the archive cannot be found "

When I type <-net start winmgmt-> The massage said " The command "net"
is not recognize..."

After reboot the nothing change.

(The first time when I type command "net" looks be ok.)

Are you right-click the Command Prompt shortcut, and choosing Run as
Administrator?

Are you Copying the commands exactly as written?

If "yes" to the above, run Command Prompt as Administrator, and type:

path

Press Enter. What information does it show? Is it
"C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem" (without quotes),
or is it something else?

And I guess there's no education requirement for computer users who read
and post to news groups. If there had been you'd have been able to easily
discern from the OP's email address that he's from the Netherlands and
therefore English is more than likely not his mother tongue.
