Hi, Uninstalled antivirus as it would not let me do anything when I disabled it, Restored my computer to a much earlier date when all was working. Then did what you said but put in "always on at the end" all ok. Many Thanks

Many thanks, solved

Hi Phil, Thanks for tip. I carried out your instructions and the outcome was "Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations" so that good news. Have a great day too. Regards, back to the drawing board.

Hi, Had no luck with this either it says: "The element date type specified is not recognized or does not apply to the specified entry. Element not found" Thanks anyway worth a try. There must be some sort of corruption somewhere or virus but my anti virus is not picking up anything. So I have no "Data execution protection working" DEP.

Hi there, many thanks for your reply- I tried the bcdedit /set {current} nx optin but it just comes back saying "Access is denied"

My computer keep turning off my DEP automatically and I have to use microsoft fix it to turn it back on again as it won't let me do it manually.
