Tripredacus Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 It depends what it is. Did you check the dependencies tab to see if you need to change a different service first? There are some MS services that behave this way. Also, you may find more information in Event Viewer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tripredacus Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 This event is telling you that Avira has been denied writing to the registry. A cursory lookup of this message leads to many people having a virus or malware on the system. Try running Malwarebytes or another product to see if it finds anything.

dencorso Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 If it began after some antivirus update, and you're positive there's no malware in your system, then try doing it as the TrustedInstaller (<link> and <link>), or, by the same methods, as Local System Account.

UltimateSilence Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 (edited) Vinifera,I had the same problem with Avira on Windows Vista.I can't find the link anymore, but IIRC, it is because Avira protects its services, etcetera from modification. I had to go into Safe Mode to disable the Scheduler.EDIT: Alternatively, you could try Avira > Configuration (F8) > General (make you you're in Expert mode) > Security.While in the Security tab, uncheck the "Protect files and registry entries from manipulation" checkbox.If the information provided above does not help, try to edit the state of the service in Safe Mode.Good luck.
