Defender update frequency normal?

Thanks for the attachment. My Desktop had the Installer, but Gayle's HP Laptop didn't. Now I have two machines looking like yours. Hope this works, I got enough to do without daily checking for Restore Points to Delete.

Yea, that makes two of us.

The reg hack appears to have worked ... NO Windows Module Installer restore point was created today ... However, I won't be convinced this is an actual fix/workaround, until I've tested it for a couple more days.

Note:
1. FWIW ... The SR Task I had disabled yesterday ... got re-enabled today. Disabling it didn't stop these restore points from being created anyway, so I left it enabled.

Just checked and I got a Restore Point right at two hours after the Defender Update this morning. The Registry Hack isn't the answer to this one. LOL, look out when tomorrow's CU hits!

@Wiley Coyote ...
I haven't had any restore points created since I did the reg hack yesterday, but we'll see what happens when the system runs those task sometime tonight.
Yep, will be interesting to see what tomorrows CU brings and/or does with this issue/annoyance :)

Note:
1. Don't know if a reboot is required after the reg hack, but I did reboot PC's after doing it ... Did you ?
2. Have you searched the registry for LimitSystemRestoreCheckpointing to see if it's still there in those 2 locations and set to 1?

FWIW ... Today, I did a manual check for updates (Defender updated) and even ran the Defender Verification Task manually with no restore point being created.

Desktop PC just ran all the defender task, etc and a restore point got created. I guess there is no stopping it, short of disabling System Restore
