Can't Open Windows Defender
I ran into the first problem with my image I stripped down with MSMG, I can't get windows defender to launch but it's running as a service because it quarantined a file I was about to use. I just can open the app to release the file from quarantine.
While in Windows Security, I clock on Virus and Threat protection and get a popup that says, "You'll need a new app to open this windowsdefender". Any suggestions how I can get around this error or reinstall windows defender without loading my machine back up with windows bloatware? Anyway to manually un-quarantine a file (where are they stored)?
I did run sfc /scannow but that didn't fix it.
ps... During the strip down I removed the store and all the metro apps. Didn't know any was needed for defender or that defender was left on the machine for that matter.
