While using your computer, you may come across a few errors or warnings, but if you get the PC status at risk warning, you need to check it ASAP.

This is because the PC status at risk error or warning message is usually associated with or caused by a malware infection.

Malware is simply malicious software or programs that are hostile or intrusive like ransomware, spyware, viruses, Trojans, and other programs meant to harm your computer or files.

In this case, you need to get your computer restored to normalcy and you can do this using the solutions in this article.

PC status at risk: Here’s what you can do to fix it

Solution 1: Restart your computer

This is usually the first thing to do when you experience an error because sometimes programs running in the background could cause some problems on your computer that could lead to the PC status at risk warning. Try restarting your computer and see if it helps. If it persists, try the next solution.

Solution 2: Remove malware from your computer

In order to do this, you need malware removal tools because some of these harmful or malicious programs reinstall themselves after detection and removal. But with malware removal tools, you can permanently remove them.

To permanently remove malware from your computer, there are several things you need to do as ordered below:

Install latest updates from Microsoft Update

Follow these steps to do this:

Select Settings

Click Update & Security

Select Check for updates

Use Microsoft Safety Scanner tool

This is a free online tool from Microsoft which you can use to scan and remove potential threats such as malware from your computer.

Use Windows Malicious Software Removal tool

This tool also helps remove specific, prevalent malware from your computer, especially if you’re running Windows 7 and below versions, as well as Windows Server 2008 or XP.

Remove rogue security software manually

If malware or rogue security software isn’t detected or removed by the Microsoft Safety Scanner, or Malware removal tool, do the following:

Use arrow keys to highlight Safe Mode with Networking

Expert Tip: Some PC issues are hard to tackle, especially when it comes to corrupted repositories or missing Windows files. If you are having troubles fixing an error, your system may be partially broken. We recommend installing Restoro, a tool that will scan your machine and identify what the fault is.

Install and run MSE and Windows Defender

MSE, or Microsoft Security Essentials, is a free malware removal program offered by Microsoft that protects your computer from infections.

Follow these steps to download it:

Choose your preferred language and Windows OS to begin the download process

If these steps didn’t clear the PC status at risk of error, try the next solution.

Solution 3: Perform a System Restore

If you get a PC status at risk warning on your computer, use System Restore to create restore points using the steps below and see if it helps:

Click System

In the System Properties box, click System Restore then click Next

Restoring doesn’t affect your personal files. It however removes apps, drivers, and updates installed after the restore point was created.

To go back to a restore point, do the following:

Click Open System Restore

Did this clear the issue? If not, try the next solution.

Solution 4: Run DISM tool

If you still get the PC status at risk error, run the DISM tool, or Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool.

The DISM tool helps fix Windows corruption errors when Windows Updates and service packs fail to install due to corruption errors, like if you have a damaged system file.

Here’s how to run the DISM command on your PC to check if it helps you when you can’t install updates on Windows:

Click Command Prompt in the search results list

Once the repair is complete, reboot your computer and check if the error persists, after which you can run an SFC scan as described in the next solution.

Solution 5: Run a System File Checker scan

A System File Checker scan checks or scans all protected system files, and then replaces the incorrect versions, with the genuine, correct Microsoft versions.

Here’s how to do this:

Right click and select Run as Administrator

Type sfc/scannow
