    "New" Microsoft Security Essentials 1.1.193-problem


    So,as we all noticed couple a days ago,new version of MSE is offered to upgrade through Windows Update.
    Since,I am a satisfied user of MSE,I decided to upgrade,but...there has to be at least one BUT
    My system successfuly downloaded an upgrade,but somewhere near the end of the instalation,it raises a flag"There was a problem during an apgrade..."
    OK,let's try again.Same thing.Tried couple more times,but same result.Then decided to completely uninstall MSE from my system,download new version through download center and start an installation again.
    Validation check-passess,instalation starts,but again,after sometimes,instalation suddenly stops,acting like it is still installing,but there is no CPU usage for more then a 30 minutes.
    Anybody else faces similar problem,or even better,anybody else faced similar problem and solved it?
    Thanks in advance,
    Cheers?

    Hi, drazenn and Nem.

    I note that you both have Windows 7, 64-bit. As a result, I suggest you restore your system to a point prior to the last night. Then manually update MSE. Launch MSE. Click the down arrow by Help (located in the right-hand corner) and select "Upgrade Microsoft Security Essentials".

    After trying various other options, that seemed to work for zapviii in this thread: MSE vanished after shutdown!!!
