Protect Yourself From Tech Support Scams Learn More
October 14, 2019
Tech support scams are an industry-wide issue where scammers trick you into paying for unnecessary technical support services.

You may be the first. What a/v are you running and is there a .dmp file left on your system?
I'm assuming that you are installing this update all by itself and thus know it's this particular August kernel update?

P.S. email me at Susan-at-msmvps.com and I can set up a support case. Microsoft can't repro this at will so they'll need your system to see what's up.

Please answer each of the following [admittedly tedious] diagnostic questions in a correspondingly-numbered list in your very next reply - preferably without quoting my post:
1a. When (approx. date) did you purchase the computer?

• C:\Program Files\Microsoft Security Client <=this folder
Select Properties: What is the Created date displayed on the resulting
General tab?
2c. What ANTIMALWARE CLIENT version is currently installed? To find out, open MSE & click on the downward-pointing arrow to the right of HELP then select ABOUT SECURITY ESSENTIALS.
2d. What ENGINE version?
3. What anti-virus application was installed before you installed MSE, was your subscription still current, and did you uninstall it before you installed MSE?
4a. Has a(nother) Norton application or a McAfee application EVER been installed on the computer?
4b. Did a Norton free-trial or a McAfee free-trial [PICK ONE] come preinstalled on the computer when you bought it? (Doesn't matter if you never used or Activated it.)

Hello.
This is ditry problem for many users, not only for EnglishM45.
Just search for "kb2859537" in the google or yandex.
I also have the problem with this crappy update - it's not possible to run almost all applications include IE, Personalize screen, components from control panel and many other "native windows features and applications".
One of the problem with run is error 0xc0000005. I'm absolutely sure this error code is well known to you.
My configuration (before update): Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit English Service Pack 1
, Internet Explorer 10.0.9200.16635 (Update version: 10.0.7).

First off I don't see anyone else getting a bsod. Can you show me in google where you are seeing this?
When you say you are getting "run is error 0xc0000005" how exactly are you seeing this error? And no, I don't memorize error codes so it's not well known to me.
Can you post up event errors you see?
