Just showed up but aftre swaping test rig Motherboard, i expected to haveto use the activation troubleshooter and select "I changed hardware recently". it wont take the activation :/ (it says Windows has been successfully activated but wont show as activated and in pc settings shows it's Not.)
When switching motherboard you may have to call Microsoft for re-activation. You need to have a good explanation so they will allow it to be activated. A good reason would be that the old MB died, and the manufacturer/retailer swapped the MB for a different one.
I am not 100% sure if they will activate a new MB of different brand though...
Definitions updated automatically this morning but WD still throws error when trying to update from it.

Chris, that pretty much nails it on the head. I just fired up a 15031 VM that has absolutely nothing on it but pure MS. As clean and virgin as you can get. The sequence of events was exactly as you posted. Exactly. It updated after giving all signs it didn't/couldn't. This screenshot is from the VM settings Defender page, to verify it's up to date. There's a bad bug somewhere. With no 3rd party anything, well........
