Microsoft Shield On My SHUTDOWN Bar/UPDATES

This is the UPDATE that fails to install.

Just hide the update by right clicking it and click on hide update and your done. It will no longer try downloading and installing.

Or you can press ALT + PRTSCN buttons on your keyboard, then go into MSPAINT and press CTRL + V and it will paste it in, then save it. Then upload that file here. Pressing ALT button along with the prtscn button will only copy active window instead of whole screen.


That update is actually for windows defender which can be ignored if you are using an active virus program or at least Malwarebytes scanning a few times a week.

AFAIK the Malware Removal Tool is separate from Defender. Defender usually just gets definition updates but could be wrong.

HEY, IT WORKED!
Why didn't I just do this from the beginning? <~~~~D'OH! (My Homer Simpson impression)
