MSFT Security Essentials problem
Hi Everyone,
I have a problem with Microsoft Security Essentials. For whateverreason, I keep getting a failed to update message. This happens daily and thedownload keeps running and blocking my usage of my computer. I think one thethings that bothers me the most is updates from Security Essentials doesn’t askyour permission to download. I have downloads set to notify me and let mechoose when I want to download and install them. That seems to work best forme.
I am thinking of getting rid of Security Essentials from mycomputer and going with AVG, as I am really tired of fighting this intruder,just like the way windows 10 was forced on anyone who used the Microsoft OS.
As I am writing this message in Word, I see by the flashinglights on my modem, S.E. is up to it again. Noting the error codes inMpCmdRun.log telling me S.E. is trying to download and install or downloadingwithout fail.
Looking at my CBS.log, the sessions of S.E. have gone onlong enough and that’s why I want to get rid of S.E.
My question is: deleting S.E. would be from Control Panel,uninstall a program or does anyone else have ideas on this?
Thanks in advance for your consideration.
John
