  1. Windows Defender Antivirus Update on Windows 11 won't work error code 0x80070643


    Another person has asked this before but there weren't any useful replies that I found. Anyway, this issue started a few months back when I was getting the error code 0x80070643 each time I tried updating the anti-virus on the Windows Defender. Now all I get is Engine Unavailable. I have found lots of suggestions for Windows 10 &11 and tried a few of them, but nothing seems to work. I'm getting really frustrated because all my efforts to try and fix it ends up being futile plus I feel like my laptop is now vulnerable to threats... Can someone help me please... it would be highly appreciate

    :)

    Windows Update Error 0x80070643 for Windows Defender

    Still having issues updating Windows Defender as of 4/3/17, 12:30pm CDT on 10 Pro winver 14393.969 . Windows Update shows Error 0x80070643 but manual update via Defender GUI installed latest virus/spyware definition 1.239.713.0. Re-running Window Update shows everything is up to date.

    It's been at least 4 days since this glitch first appeared on my machines. Any thoughts on why Microsoft is delaying a fix? Perhaps to include in next Patch Tuesday 4/11?
