    Windows Security: Virus & threat protection updates


    I'm getting a warning that my Virus & threat protection updates definitions are out of date. I click on the "Check for updates" button and have trying to update for almost two hours. How long does it usually take to update a new definition?

    :)

    Hi Valentin

    As an alternative approach, you can allow that utility through the Controlled Folder Access section of WIndows 10 security . . .

    Open Windows Defender Security Center

    Go to Virus & threat protection - Virus & threat protection settings

    Scroll down to Controlled folder access

    From there, you can add Dell Data Vault to the list of safe or allowed apps to prevent it from being blocked

    Please do not leave Controlled Folder Access turned off permanently
