Issue with Windows Defender on Windows 11
I cannot open any of the settings on windows defender, when i try to it tells me to look for a compatible app in the Microsoft Store. Is this a bug or some other (fixable) issue?
- I had this problem on all machines updated from 19043.1151 to 22000.120.
This command from elevated PowerShell fixed the problem for me, try it and report the results:
Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.SecHealthUI -AllUsers | Reset-AppxPackage
(copy the exact command if not error 87 will appear as its due to lack of space in the command)
in search bar type
command prompt
and then right click on it and select run as admin
Type the following command and press Enter:
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
after the above process is completed copy paste the below command and press enter
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
after the above process is completed copy paste the below command and press enter
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
and restart your computer and check.
let me know if it works for you.
