We need to update WD's definitions within WD itself.
But, on last update, WU did download the updates but it just for an updates that marked as Critical Updates. That's happen to me on the last updates that brings the build to 14393.82 (KB3176934 and KB3176936).
After checking for updates and then we click on download (if sets WU to Notify), WU will say "WU will not download and install KB1234567 on metered connection automatically. Click download to download and install the update but you will be charged for data usage...................................................", something like that.
Hi Brink,
I have applied the metered connection reg file. Is there somehow I can confirm my connection is now metered? I'm currently fully up to date with Windows updates.
Will Windows Defender still automatically update on a metered connection?
Does Windows Defender update through Windows update or through it's own app? I notice when clicking check for updates (in the windows update settings) if there is a defender definition update available it try's to download it but throw's an error as someone else also mentioned. If I download the definition through Windows Defender manually though it downloads with no problem. Not sure why WU is throwing that error on WD definitions, I haven't had new Windows updates come through to test whether the metered connection conversion has worked yet but Windows defender does inform me that I'm using a metered connection now.
Permission issues with the REG I think. Even manual method, I can add Full Permissions to the Admin group and My User (part of Local Admin group) for:
- Network List - folder key
but not able to save permissions (denied) for
- Default Media Cost
PS: Only have ethernet on the VM, so if there's another way do let me know.
