    As soon as installation is complete Security Essentials Microsoft will update its database of virus definitions and malware, the system (in Windows 7) detects that the software is not updated. It shows, moreover, by an orange bar that the protection of the PC is not optimal. You can view all the information about the infected file in the history after Microsoft Security Essential finishes the scan.

    i think that you wanted to check the log files of the scan which are done on your system and you can do this by simply go to the location or browser to the path which i have mentioned below:

    C:\Program files\Microsoft\Microsoft Antimalware\Support

    On this location you will get to all the details of the infectious files hope that this will help you for sure.

    The above mentioned path will only provide the details of the files which are infected or malicious and if the information provided by the above link is not sufficient then i would advice you to browse to the following location C:\Program files\Microsoft\Microsoft Security Essentials\Support
    This file will provide you all the install log and upgrade log, etc.

    I will advice you to get this application removed from your system using an uninstaller application like the Revo uninstaller or the Revo uninstaller. Can you tell me whether or not it is possible to get rid of the Microsoft security Essential in the safe mode. If you have not tried this yet then i would suggest you to use the Revo uninstaller.
