Also did DISM RestoreHealth, didn't work, so then a component cleanup and retried the first two again. When that did not work I did a quick search to see troubleshooting options, I did a sfc scan which did say it found errors but was unable to fix them. Its worth mentioning at this point in time I had never installed any third party software for antivirus/anti malware or anything.

But upon right clicking it all of my playback options (restart etc.) are greyed out. When I noticed the problem I looked through my settings first and seeing nothing wrong I tried simply restarting security center through services.msc. I'm fairly well off with computers but am no expert by any means so any help would be greatly appreciated.ġ. I will list what i have been through so far to eliminate what I have already tried. i have been through many google posts trying many different things. Virus and threat protection menu will not let me scan or update or do anything. I went and checked to see if windows defender was on and there no sys tray icon and the windows security menu shows as blank when opened. So my windows defender stopped working completely, i noticed it when the scan option disappeared from my context menu.
