I am having the same problem updating definitions 5731 to
5733 as I did before a fix was listed for earlier update
versions like 5729 to 5731. It continually updates each
time I try it. This is a problem, even though this is
beta, that is ongoing and definitely should have been
fixed by now.

I had the same issue with 5729 to 5731 and now with 5733! I
hope too they fix this very soon! BTW, the manual updates
do NOT fix mine either as it still looks for the newer
defs. with 5731 and now again 5733. If you look on help:
about MSAS it also shows that I have the new defs
installed!? Weird..

Hello All,

a new workaround,
Empty you Temp Internet folder
Then click for update MSAS
Go to the Temp Internet folder
there are now 3 folders, look for the next 3 files in those folders
gcThreatAuditScanData[1].gcz
gcThreatAuditThreatData[1].gcz
gcDeterminationData[1].gcz
Ok change the .gcz annex to .zip
unzip them to the MSAS folder
Say yes to overwrite!
Then click upgrade MSAS
and no more useless upgrades!

Yes it is still a Beta!

With regards >*< TOM >*<

I'm with you, Perry. Stuck in loop between 5725 and 5733.
Updates installed but won't stay installed. Help,
anybody? Thanks in advance.

The same thing happened on my PC. You need to apply once
again the fix recommended previously to upgrade to 5731.
I assume that at some point Microsoft will do something to
cure the problem otherwise one will have to go through the
whole download thing each time new updates are posted!!
Thanks Microsoft.

Tom,

Using IE, I don't get three folders in my temporary internet files folder. I do,
however, get six files regarding "gc" something. Three of the files are .gcz
files, three are catalog files (.cat). To be clear, which exactly should I turn
into zip files, unzip, and add to my msas folder?
