After installing the Windows 11 22H2 update, the Windows Security dialog may not launch. It may show a blank page, as shown below:<\/p>\n

\"windows<\/p>\n

Also, when you attempt to start the Windows Security Service (“SecurityHealthService<\/code>“) using the Services MMC console, the following error occurs:<\/p>\n

The Windows Security Service service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs.<\/pre>\n
\"securityhealth<\/p>\n
The system repeatedly tries to install the KB5007651 update “Update for Windows Security platform antimalware platform – KB5007651 (Version 1.0.2303.28002)”, as seen on the Windows Update history page.<\/p>\n
\"KB5007651<\/p>\n
Cause<\/h2>\n
The above issues occur if the registry points to an old or non-existent path for the Security Health core files. As a result, the Security Health service tries to load outdated modules and fails to start.<\/p>\n
Solution<\/h2>\n
To resolve the Windows Security app, Windows Security Service (“SecurityHealthService<\/code>“) startup error, and the KB5007651 repeated installation problem, follow these steps:<\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Download AdvancedRun from Nirsoft.net and run it.<\/li>\n
  2. Launch the Registry Editor c:\\windows\\regedit.exe<\/code>\u00a0as TrustedInstaller<\/a> (using the AdvancedRun utility).<\/li>\n
  3. Close AdvancedRun.<\/li>\n
  4. In the Registry Editor window, go to the following branch:\n
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows Security Health\\Platform<\/pre>\n<\/li>\n
  5. Inspect the path mentioned for the CoreLocation<\/strong> value. It should point to the latest Windows Security platform folder.\n
    To know the latest Windows Security platform folder name, open the folder C:\\Windows\\System32\\SecurityHealth<\/code> and note the highest version numbered subfolder — e.g., 1.0.2303.28002-0<\/code>.<\/p>\n
    \"securityhealth\n<\/div>\n
    Assuming 1.0.2303.28002-0<\/code> is the latest version installed, set the value data for CoreLocation<\/strong> as follows:<\/p>\n
    \\\\?\\C:\\Windows\\System32\\SecurityHealth\\1.0.2303.28002-0<\/pre>\n
    \"securityhealth\n<\/li>\n
  6. Exit the Registry Editor.<\/li>\n
  7. Restart the computer. Important:<\/strong> Shutdown and then powering on will not<\/strong> help. You must use the “Restart” option.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    Note that the above fix is especially applicable for Windows 11 systems that have been upgraded to version 22H2.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
