Windows update KB3004394  causes the following issues on my Windows 7 x64 Ultimate system:

All MMC functions (Event Viewer, etc.) now require Administrator action, although in an Administrator account.

Windows Defender service will not start

The Windows Defender Service Terminated with the following error

%%-2147023113

Removing it  returns the system to normal.

Anyone else experience this?

    I'm sad that there's no official Microsoft presence in this thread.  I'm sad that there's no spokesman here giving additional guidance.  I don't get the logic of their lack of guidance in the consumer forums in the first place, Noel.

    My gut feels like it's more OEM related.

    Exactly the same problem. Have to turn power off (UH !??). Fortunately after new normal start everything went well - configuration went trough and now everything is running as before without KB.

    What are this MS guys doing - i'm completly disappointed. Such an exercise should never take place.

    I was totally unaffected by KB3004394 and I have Firefox and Chrome installed.

    That is not incompatible with what I wrote. If I say it's only 2006 BMWs that burst into flames, I'm not claiming that all 2006 BMWs will spontaneously combust.

    I guess KB3024777's codes just like this:

    dism /online /remove-package /packagename:Package_for_KB3004394~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.0

    dism /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup
