    click start and type dxdiag in the search box and hit the enter key, a window will open, click yes and the DirectX Diagnostic Tool will open, and you should see you have DirectX 11

    Uninstall Microsoft Security Essentials

    Do you have Ccleaner installed ? If not, install it. Run Ccleaner and scan the registry for any issues then choose fix all issues, do that until there are no more issues. (scan for issues again)

    http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner

    Now click start, computer, Local Disk C:, Program Files (x86) and delete the Microsoft Security Client folder, also delete it from the Program Files folder ( yes it`s in the Program Files folder and the Program Files (x86) folder, delete it from both.

    Run Ccleaner again the same way, now download and re install Microsoft Security Essentials again, let it update but uncheck scan my computer, you can do that later. You shouldn`t have any more issues with MSE :)

    You don`t scan the windows tab, you just run the cleaner

    Even if you do click analyze, it should only take a few seconds. You should be running the cleaner everyday when you`re done with your pc, so web pages, and other garbage, don`t pile up on the hard drive.

    Just concentrate on fixing Microsoft Security Essentials

    Security essentials won't uninstall -__- I right click uninstall in the control panel and it just does literally nothing. Computer doesn't freeze or anything... it just acts as if I never clicked at all. Did it twice
