Computer hung in System Restore

<< < (2/3) > >>

Rick:
Have you updated your system with the system readiness tool?

have you manually checked that you have restore points?

when the system hangs, how long does it hang, some restore point can take a half an hour!

 try restore in safe mode with networking support?

Hi Rick.  I left it on all night and it stayed hung.  So as Shane suggested I rebooted.  Avast is working ok so will continue to use it for now.
Yes I have restore points.   My computer is just a couple months old Windows 8.  Only problem is with Windows Defender. 

Shane:
Lets see if the regkey is in the registry.

Check it here

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinDefend

zz:
Yes it is.

Shane:
Here is the reg file for that service, edit the regfile and compare it to the keys on your system and see if anything is missing :wink:
