When I click on "Check for new definitions" in Defender, I get the following
error:
"Windows Defender was unable to complete the update: 0x80244016"
Any thoughts?
You are not alone. I have been having problems with the Windows Defender
for a couple weeks now. I swear I uninstalled it a few times, but it keeps
reappearing. I have got the same error message as you when I update the
program and other errors telling me it is already up to date which I know it
isn't, because I get that alert message from the Windows Defender, it's a
pain in the neck and I agree with the one poster Ewido is really good (even
the free version).
