    MS Posts Support Note About Defender SFC /Scannow


    See this note for Microsoft's explanation of the Defender PowerShell script issue that leads SFC /scannow to return hash value mismatch errors for those files: https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/...s-as-corrupted. Apparently one needs version 4.18.1908 of the Antimalware platform to avoid this error. My only problem now is that some of my 1903 PCs are running version 4.18.1907.

    Checking for updates refreshes the Security Intelligence updates just fine, but the engine number stays unchanged. Why do some of my Win10 1903 PCs run older Antimalware platforms? Is there any way I can find and force an install of the 4.18.1908 version? Can't seem to find a link on the MS site to do this. Sigh.

    Sticky Note Error?

    Hi,

    To further help you with your concern about the sticky note, we suggest using System File Checking in Windows 10. Kindly follow the steps below:

    • Right-click (or press and hold) the Start button, then select Command Prompt (Admin)
    • Enter sfc /scannow (note the space between "sfc" and "/").

    Let us know how it goes.

    sfc /scannow error


    Problem is not with windows update. It is with defender malware update.
    Please do
    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /AnalyzeComponentStore
    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup
    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

    After above steps, reboot laptop and do sfc /scannow.
