I do not use Windows Defender and it has been turned off. I don't want to install any updates for this program, and usually hide them. However, I have been unable to permanently hide update #KB2267602. I hide it at least twice daily, and it keeps on popping up.

I am using Windows 8.1 on an Asus laptop - 64 bit.

Any help?

Try uninstalling any third party antivirus you have installed. Reboot and check that Windows Defender has been re-enabled or re-enable it. Run Windows Update and allow it to install the update. Once it's done reinstall your third party antivirus which should automatically disable Windows Defender in the process.

So, I tried to do a manual update, but after going through all the steps to download Windows Updates Downloader, it turns out that KB2267602 is not on ANY list of updates......

I am not going to disable my anti-virus, enable Windows Defender just to download this update, as I am seeing a lot of people having trouble with that update to begin with - lots of systems crashing, error messages, etc.....seems like a whole lot of headache for an update I DO NOT NEED or WANT.

Seriously, WTF is up with this update?
