Windows Defender 0x800106ba error

my windows defender service is not working. Error message is:
"Application failed to initialize: 0x800106ba. A problem has caused windows
defender service to stop. To restart the service restart or search help and
support on how to start the service manually."

How do I start the service manually?

Help....

I have just encountered the same problem, so any help would be appreciated.....

Windows Defender beta expires today generating that fault code.
You need to now install the final version.
1. Use IE
2. Uninstall Defender with Add/Remove programs
3.Domn load from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...&displaylang=en

Many thanks, will try the new download.

I also had the same problem this morning, when none of my computers would
complete the boot sequence properly (0x800106ba error) !
I have WINDOWS ONE CARE on these computers. Why were they not updated
automatically? At the very least a notification would of been nice.

Hi,
Unfortumally that doesn't run...

History
last week I try to up grade defender but aech time it sid don(t found
defender.msi Impossible to upgrade...!!!
To Day when i start my PC I have the pop up :
" Application failed to initialize :0X800106ba. A problem caused Windows
Defender Service to stop . TO Start the service , restart your PC or search
Help and support on How to start a service manualy"
Restart did gived the same problem.

At this moment I copy the up grade but no possibility to install.

I'VE GOT THE SOLUTION - FROM MICROSOFT!
1. Go to www.microsoft.com
2. In the Search Window (upper right corner), type: windows installer cleanup
3. Click on the first heading, "Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp
Utility".
4. Scroll down and click on "Download the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility
package now."
5. Save it to your Desktop or any folder you wish.
6. Run the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility.
7. A window will pop up. Scroll down to the Windows Defender line.
8. Select or highlight that line (I had two such entries).
9. Click the Remove button. Then click the Exit button.
10. Go to www.microsoft.com and download and install the new Windows
Defender program Version 1.1.1593.0
11. That's it. Happy computing.
