This is the error message I receive when I try to update my newly installed
Windows Defender: "Windows Defender was unable to update: 0x8024402c" I would appreciate any suggestions. Thank you |

Please go to Windows(or Microsoft) Update, do an express scan, and apply all
offered critical updates. Once this completes, and you've restarted (if needed)--then open Windows Defender, and do Help, about, check for updates--and see if that process (it takes some time)--completes without error. -- "April" <April@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:3F36DED9-E4DB-4F23-B323-E5CDE4F70489@microsoft.com... > This is the error message I receive when I try to update my newly > installed > Windows Defender: > "Windows Defender was unable to update: 0x8024402c" > I would appreciate any suggestions. > Thank you |
