Hello,
I have noticed on W 7 that MSE shows no update or scan records. All of the other AV software I have used shows reports that at least say scan performed, nothing found and/or updates completed successfully with a date shown. Am I missing something? Is there a setting I'm not seeing? Thanks,
John
Hello John,
MSE has this for me if this is what you meant. Here are some screenshots to help.
Hope this helps,
Shawn

You cleared up the update history, but where you have the red arrows in scan history, I'm not seeing that. I took a screen shot of mine.
That's the screen I get after clicking on the View Details button, so no worries. :)
I forgot that I had this setting unchecked for why I see it and you do not.
Hello brink do you mind if i ask what your security set up is =D. Along with MSE!
I unchecked that setting and I still see nothing. I haven't seen a view details button.
Just an added note about the Settings image Brink posted.
I am a firm believer in using System Restore before making any system changes. It is a particularly nice feature of Microsoft Security Essentials that the setting to "Create a system restore point before applying actions to detected items." is default. Thus, in the event a false/positive should occur, using System Restore will quickly resolve the issue. I am not aware of any other antivirus software using that feature.
I believe in system restore also. I'm not looking to hack the registery. I'm just looking for reports and log files in MSE, so I'm confused about your reply.
