    Did you try to update definitions thru WD itself. I had that case once and one update thru WD fixed it.

    My real question is after installing the named update why does it keep coming back every time I seek updates?

    You could try disk cleanup(as admin) and selecting Defender and Update cleanup. I don't know if it'll help, but... worth a try.
    Note after the Defender cleanup it'll say you need to scan again, as this also clears the scan logs.
