OK so the updates for windows popped up on my compuer for a definition update for windows defender, so i install the update and it says the update has been installed and the yellow shield icon in the bottom goes away, about 30 seconds later it comes back and asks me to install the update again and it just keeps doing that every time. Does anyone know about this problem?
