Error 1075 when starting the Security Center service
Q: When i access the Security Center in my Windows XP computer, it says The Security Center is currently unavailable because the "Security Center" service has not started or was stopped. I ran the Services.msc command from Start - Run. but I can’t get the service started. I got the following error:
Error 1075 The dependency service does not exist or has been marked for deletion
What should i do to get my security center started again?
A: Restart Windows once, and try starting the Security Center service. If you still receive the same error, make sure that the WMI service is started and running:
- Click Start, Run and type Services.msc
- Double-click Windows Management Instrumentation
- Set its Startup type to Automatic
- Click Start to start the service, and click OK
- Restart Windows.
More information
The Security Center service depends on the Windows Management Service. To view the dependencies of the Security Center service, type the following in Start, Run dialog:
CMD /K SC QC WSCSVC
Press {ENTER}
Verify the output. The Dependencies listing should be exactly as shown below:
SERVICE_NAME: wscsvc
TYPE : 20 WIN32_SHARE_PROCESS
START_TYPE : 3 DEMAND_START
ERROR_CONTROL : 1 NORMAL
BINARY_PATH_NAME : G:\WINDOWS\System32\svchost.exe -k netsvcs

TAG : 0
DISPLAY_NAME : Security Center
DEPENDENCIES : RpcSs

SERVICE_START_NAME : LocalSystem
Editor’s note: If any other additional drivers or Services are mentioned in the DEPENDENCIES section, you may leave a comment on this article so that I can provide further instructions in this page on how to fix the service dependencies.
