  1. Okay.. one question. Do you know why it is showing this missing startup entry?

     

    If I look in Ccleaners startup, it shows the windows defender entry:

     

    Yes    HKLM:Run    WindowsDefender        "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Defender\MSASCuiL.exe"

     

    I guess i just want to make sure it is actually running since ccleaner is stating it is missing as a startup entry after a reg scan.

  2. Hi. I just clean reinstalled Windows 8.1 after getting sick of Windows 10 breaking everything after a feature update. Everything is great - system is fine.

     

    There is one issue that comes up when i do a registry scan with Ccleaner. It finds this:

     

    Missing Startup Software    "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Defender\MSASCuiL.exe"    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

     

    If i delete/fix the entry using Ccleaner, and restart and do a reg scan again, the issue comes back

     

    If seems to refer to Windows defender. If I look in my startup (through task manager), it shows the entry Masacuil. If i do the scan and delete it, this masacuil entry will disappear but then come back on a restart (and show again in Ccleaner).

     

    Can i fix this? I seem to recall it usually shows Windows defender (not msascuil) when I look at the startup entries in task manager.

     

    Windows defender works fine otherwise - no issues.

     

    Thanks for any help.
