Hi Bobby35
 
Welcome to the Community Forums.
 
In the circumstances I would undertake a claean reinstall of  WSA following these instructions closely:
 
  • Make sure you have a copy of your 20 Character Alphanumeric Keycode! Example:SA69-AAAA-A783-DE78-XXXX
  • KEEP the computer online for Uninstall and Reinstall to make sure it works correctly
  • Download a Copy Here(Best Buy Subscription PC users click HERE)
  • Uninstall WSA and Reboot
  • Install with the new installer, enter your Keycode and do NOT import any settings if offered by the installer; to as you can set it up as you like once it's done
  • Let it finish it's install scan
  • Reboot once again
Hopefully that should sort you out.

Baldrick,
 
Got it.  Followed your ideas and came out well.  Got the two desktops done, now need to do the laptop.  I think keeping the web running in the background helped.  Another thing not helping was my account was not complete, and I have had Webroot for several years now. 
 
Thanks again for your speedy reply.
