Windows Defender not updating as often as it should?
I have two Windows 10 Pro computers, one a desktop and the other a laptop. The desktop computer works well, Windows Defender updates its virus definitions about when I log on in the morning, so always updated for the day. And this is automatic, I don't have to go to Windows Updates to get the latest Windows Defender update. There may or may not be intraday auto updates for Windows Defender virus definitions, but just having it update when I boot up my computer in the morning is very desirable. This is obviously what I want.
The laptop computer, when I look at the virus definition under "Update", I see that it is usually a day or 2 old. It doesn't update at the morning login, and I usually manually update the virus definitions as a result of the lack of auto updating.
So my question is obviously how do I get the laptop to update Windows Defender virus definitions automatically as often as my desktop. Both have the Anniversary Update, and I'm not aware of any differences in their Windows Update configurations.
Thanks.
