An acquaintance of mine sits in a country where broadband connections
are virtually unknown, and he has to use a slow dial-up connection.
Windows Defender seems to want to connect via MpCmdRun.exe every few
hours to check for updates. He already has Windows AutoUpdate disabled,
but he also needs to disable Windows Defender's own update check.
Is there a way to disable these automatic update checks? He wouldn't
mind to implement this via a registry change, if WD options do not allow
for this.
Thanks!
