Still windows security is blank.
TAHSN same as mine.. I tried it since last 24 hour but still nothing
TAHSN bro did you get any solution
This worked for me :
Enter the command below in Command Prompt(run as administrator) and hit Enter to run it:
winmgmt /salvagerepository
Then it should show "WMI repository is consistent", now restart your computer and check if it worked.
TAHSN, you can refer this updated video fix, if you're on Windows 11 23H2 and this issue appeared after you reset/clean install:
Hope this helps!
- It worked, tysm
KapilArya Hi but my securityhealth folder is empty any idea why? even though i reset my Pc on locally as well as cloud but i still cannot open my windows security any idea what could be the problem?
hanzala7861, and to anyone else having this same issue with no files in their folder, DL this zip, extract to DT. Go to your DT and right-click on the file, select Run as Administrator. You should then see the cmd prompt window open up briefly, then close itself out.
You should now be able to open Windows Security without having to restart.
If this helped you, please reply so that others that may be hesitant on DL links, may feel more at peace about doing so. Thanks!
My issue was not only the admin restriction but that the Security Health Folder was empty. Your video and the download worked perfectly - thank you so much - very grateful for your help! 🙂
- Glad I could help!
TAHSN what kind of blank? The app opens but blank window, or the app doesn't open? Because mine doesn't open.
Doesnt open for me either jpara_dise
ShahbazUbaid my windows license is already expired. and i am not getting any security updates ever since. and that is also the time where i noticed that my windows security app won't open. is it because of my windows license bein expired? do you think if i reactivate my license, it will solve my problem?
