To do this, type the following commands at an elevated command prompt. You should press Enter after you type each command.
•To disable the driver’s service, type the following command: sc config secdrv start= disabled

•To set the driver’s service to manual, type the following command: sc config secdrv start= demand

•To enable the driver’s service (and to set it to automatic), type the following command: sc config secdrv start=auto

•To manually start the driver’s service, type the following command: sc start secdrv
