Window Script Host Error 80070002

Question

Every time I turn ON my Laptop, an error pops up. Because of this error Windows Security, not opening, and Windows Defender is turned OFF, I tried to turn it ON but it also shows the misconception that it cannot turn ON. I hope you did understand my explanation.

Answer 1

Your system is infected by the Run.vbs virus and Defender services would have been wiped out already.

From admin Command Prompt, run these four commands:

del "%LocalAppData%\Updates\Run.vbs"

schtasks /delete /tn "\Window Update"

(Press Y to confirm)

schtasks /delete /tn "\Windows Service Task"

(Press Y to confirm)

rd /s /q "%LocalAppData%\Updates"

Pls post a screenshot of the output window.

Answer 2

didnt fixed

Answer 3

You need to run those commands from admin Command Prompt (NOT PowerShell).

And that will remove the rogue tasks/virus files.

Further, to fix Defender, reinstall Windows. How to perform an In-place Upgrade with Windows 10 Step-by-Step Guide - Microsoft Community: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/how-to-perform-an-in-place-upgrade-with-windows-10/7f0b236e-3c6c-4913-9691-c4baa2a6190a

Post back after reinstalling Windows. There is an additional step to activate Defender.

Answer 4

I know if I reinstall Windows it will be fixed but I don't want to do that I guess I have no choice.

Thank you for your time, I will msg you again when it is installed.

Answer 5

I know if I reinstall Windows it will be fixed but I don't want to do that I guess I have no choice.

Without removing the Run.vbs virus, reinstalling would have been a futile exercise. That's why those four commands had to be run first.
