Right-click My Computer, and choose Manage. Click on Disk Manager. In the
right pane, is the partition type for the drive that contains the C: volume
"basic" or "dynamic"?
If it is dynamic, this error is a known bug, which is scheduled to be fixed
in a future update which will come in automatically as other updates do.
If it is a basic partition, other users with this error have found that
running a chkdsk scan on the partition has eliminated this error.
I can't predict when the update fixing this error will be available.
Windows Defender will continue to update properly, and Real-time protection
is fully effective, but scanning will not complete until this bug is fixed.

Hello World !
My computer and OS :
PIV 4 GHz / 2 Gb RAM / 2 HD (IDE) 80 Gb
XP PRO SP2
I have installed the last version of Defender Beta2 :
Windows Defender Version: 1.1.1051.0
Engine Version: 1.1.1186.0
Signature Version: 1.14.1288.5
I can't scan all my partitons (or in part), because near 32700 objects, I
receive this error message :
The file after this error happens is not always the same, BUT I remark that
the number is ALWAYS near 32768 !
(2^15). Is it a coincidence ?
(overflow in 16 bits signed variable ?)
Thank You for any information ...
