Re: Why does Windows Defender Get such a Bad Rep?
The reason I don't like WD, and am not running it now, is because last time I tried it I needed to have automatic updates turned on in window. I don't like having wu turned on, I do manual updates only. So a no go for me. |

Here is how you get manual updates for WD without auto updates turned on. 
»www.microsoft.com/security/portal/
On the right side of the page that says latest definition updates.

Right now only have WD on office PC which is on 24/7 and WU set to notify only. I have WD Options set to do Daily Scans @ 2:00 AM and to "Check for updated definitions before scanning"; hence its always updated. |
