Thank you for any help you can give to me it’s greatly appreciated! Daniel
In windows – services – properties I see everything EXCEPT Dependencies. Running win 7 x64 Professional. I see General, Log on and Recovery only. What gives?
This can sometimes happen if the Windows Management Instrumentation service is not started. Did you check this? Go to Services, search this one and on Properties set the start mode to Automatic. If it works, let me know.
No sir this computer does not get on the internet only my small laptop does I don’t trust that damn internet for this computer as it’s running 7 Windows 7 which has no security ? updates

I don’t know. We tested this on Windows 7 x64 Ultimate and Home Premium. The Dependencies tab is always there, for each service.
Are you on a network domain, handled by a network admin? Maybe… there is a policy that forbids you from accessing all the information?

Don’t forget to restart the computer once you change the start mode for that service.
