I have attempted to install the latest release and the system cannot
locate 'WindowsDefender[1]'. When installing, the same issue occurs.
How to procede from here? I have other workstations using this, and
have not run into this on the others

Hello 116,

Try with CCleaner and or HDCleaner for a more thorough cleaning.

Ccleaner - http://www.ccleaner.com
http://www.ccleaner.com/downloadbuilds.asp

Note, When you install Ccleaner, uncheck the Yahoo toolbar option.
Note, in Options, Advanced, uncheck - Only delete files in Windows folders
older than 48 hours.
Note: uncheck Windows Defender in the applications.
Do a scan with all the check marks on.
Open Ccleaner and press "Windows" "Aplications" and Run Cleaner from the
menu choose 'Issues' and then press scan for issues, Repair any fºund.
Run twice Ccleaner, the same as above,until you get “0 bytes to be removed”.

Read Review at MajorGeeks

I'd recommend re-downloading, and saving to a known location--like the
desktop.

After the download is complete, disable real-time protection by your
antivirus for long enough to do the installation. please disable or turn off
as much other software that always runs as you can--real time antivirus
scanning, any other antispyware software, (Stop all programs that are open in
the bottom taskbar) etc.

For the benefit of the community reading this post, please rate the pºst.

I hope this post is helpful.

Let us know how it works ºut.

Thanks for the assist, but install can not locate the 'WindowsDefender[1].msi
file needed to remove\install. Only file I can locate on my PC is the
'WindowsDefender.msi'. Open to any other ideas to remove Beta(2) so that I
can install the newly released.

Well, we've recommend this site when people were having difficulty removing
Microsoft Antispyware preparing for a Windows Defender install. The idea
is to re-install the version that is giving trouble with removal so as to
get back to a complete install, and then attempt to re-load the latest WD
code, in this case 1.1.1592, on top of it in the way that Engel suggests.
While it's normally not a good idea to get Ms software from a non-Ms
supplier, in an emergency you can try:

http://www.filehippo.com/download_mi...t_antispyware/

Look for the green colored highlighted window on this page. Let us know
how that works for you, as your breaking new ground at these release
levels.
