Windows 10: How can I prevent notifications for Defender updates?

Through the policy editor, I have set "Configure Windows Updates" to "2 - Notify for download and auto install".While this works fine for Windows updates, I am getting notifications quite often for security updates for Microsoft Defender. These updates are automatically installed, but I suspect what happens is that if Windows Update finds the update before Defender does, then I get a notification. If I wait a while and click through the notification and select Download, it processes immediately as Defender has probably already taken care of it.My question... how can I prevent the Defender upda

Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.

I would suggest that you Follow these steps to check if it works:

Step 1: Open the Windows Settings menu by pressing the Windows Key and “I,” or alternatively search for Settings in the Windows search bar and click the corresponding result.

Step 2: Click Notifications & Actions in the left-hand menu. This will take you to a screen providing access to all of the settings related to notifications and the Action Center.

Step 3: Click the System icon, then select Notifications and actions from the left-hand menu.

Step 4: Look for the Notifications subheading, where you will see a number of toggles for various types of notifications.

The following is a list of the settings you can toggle on this screen:

**Show notifications on the lock screen

**Show alarms, reminders, and incoming VoIP calls on the lock screen

**Hide notifications when duplicating my screen

You may just turn them OFF the notification as you need.
