I just did a health check on my PC. The report came back with a flag warning that my Anti-Virus program is not being detected. Then it says if one is installed to configure the security center so it doesn't monitor for it?????

I'm running Microsoft Security Essentials, you'd think it could pick that up. I couldn't find the "security Center", much less configure it.

I followed the link, requested the fix. It says that it should have been in the service pack??? I just installed SP1, right before I ran the health check.
Should I install the hotfix, or are they talking about the next service pack??

Requested the fix.

No prob. :)

If the error still persists, it's most likely not installed. You should request a hotfix. :)

Both functions. It gives you a short cut to the moderators. ;)

I'm running Win7 64bit and I used the hotfix and it now recognizes my AV which is Avast.

Good luck.
Mike :D

Well it still doesn't show in the health report but does show on the
Action Center- Security page now.
I even did a reboot just in case health report needed it to load the fix properly. No joy!

So at least Windows recognizes it now even though health report does not.
Not a biggy though.

Weird... Hope MS will release a proper hotfix for this. I personally wouldn't worry too much about it though. Maybe it's just a bug. :)
