Hi Petrina This happened to me yesterday. You need to download the latest version of Windows Defender and install it. You may need to uninstall your current version of Windows Defender.

Hi all, When I booted up my computer, I had the following message come up, Windows defender application failed to initialise 0x800106ba. A problem caused windows defender service to stop, to start the service restart your computer or search help and support, on how to start a service, manually, default button ok. I all so get the same message come up, when I try to access the program from the start menu. Thanks in advance, for any help you can give with this one. All the best, and a happy new year, Petrina, Southampton UK ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
