The Client/Server Security Agent Real-time Scan service is not starting because its driver is not installed.

To fix the issue:

    1. Open a command prompt window.
    2. Run these commands:

      sc query vsapint
      sc query tmfilter
      sc query tmprefilter

  2. Manually install the driver.
    1. Download the engcfg.zip file and extract it to a temporary folder (e.g. C:\Temp).
    2. Copy and paste the engcfg.exe file to ..\Program Files\Trend Micro\Security Agent.
    3. Run the following command:

      engcfg –a

    4. Restart the computer to fully install the engine drivers.
