So the first thing I did with Surface Pro 3 was run all the updates. I would actually have to go back to the previous menu, and back into the update section to recheck for updates. All until I could reboot, and there were no more updates available.
So ever since then, I have been getting new update messages almost every day. And it's always a Windows Defender update. Which I don't even use. I haven't installed Malware Bytes yet. I don't know if doing so will fix this so that I no longer get informed that I have new updates when it's just Defender.
Anyway, I'm thinking of just turning off the automatic check because of this. The whole reason I have it on is so that Windows can check for updates automatically, and let me know when I have actual new updates to download. However, I don't care about Defender updates. I need to fix it so that it will only tell me when there's actual new updates that has nothing to do with Defender. And stop telling me that I have new updates when it's just for worthless Defender.
