I don't have Starter, but you can search for msseces.exe to find the file location on your system.
You do need to wrap the command in the double quotes (as shown).

What version of MSE do you have? (Version 4 is the latest version.)

Do you have Real Time protection enabled? (MSE starts when Windows starts)

Please clarify what "That did not work" means.
What happens, what error message(s) do you get, can you post screen prints of the error(s) ... ?

Hello fluidmotion,


You might see if the paths used in the shortcuts in the tutorials below will work for you as well.

(For just MSE itself)
