Suggest you have a backup you have confidence in before deleting all your MSSE definitions.

Creating a restore point wasn't adequate for Stephan recently.

There's risk in everything we do kidl. It's a hobby for me, if I blow up my Vista install, I reload a backup image from an external hard drive, no harm.

My MSSE stopped updating so I started digging for a solution.
(This Vista machine is one of my camera file servers, I don't use it on the Internet for important stuff though it is hooked to the Internet behind three routers)

On my Vista machine I run this as administrator from the command line:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Security Client\MpCmdRun.exe -removedefinitions -all

MSSE will turn red. Then open MSSE, I click on Update and it searches, downloads, then installs the latest MSSE updates.

I'm also running MSSE 4.4.304.0, I was having issues with newer versions of MSSE working on Vista....

Search this thread for MSSE is you want to read my MSSE trials since January....
