windows defender was unable to complete the update 0x8024002b

[Guest]

My Windows Defender is Beta 2 and it says that the definitions have not been
updated in the last 50 days.

When I click on "Check for Updated" , I get the error "windows defender was
unable to complete the update 0x8024002b"

The versions nos are:

Windows Defender Version: 1.1.1051.0
Engine Version: 1.1.1185.0
Signature Version: 1.0.0.0

Thanks,

Have you tried going to Windows Update?
