Error codes 0x80070422 from Windows Defender???

I haven't been able to download any updates from microsoft. I've tried
starting it through the Services and changing the startup type and all, but
every time I change it to automatic or manual, it reverts back to disabled
when I click apply, then close it out and bring it back up. when i try to
update windows defender i get

Error found: Code 0x80070422

i followed all the directions to resolve this but it didnt work

maybe i need to download a driver or a missing file???

please help me figure this one out

And the Version of Windows is ________ ?

0x80070422 would indicate that a required service is not running or has
been disabled. It is *possible* that the issue is being caused by a
malware known as Vundo. Please scan the system with the installed
antivirus and then do an online scan ( using Internet Explorer ) here:

If malware is detected, suggest you post to a reputable anti-malware
forum for further assistance. If it's not, post back here and we'll have
you run a tool to repair the AU service.

i figure it out the internet explorer may be the third of that virus "vundo"
is on the list of target. technically, for the pc or the user never interact
for an update through windows security. the code can be enable only when the
pc is newly infected by running services.msc and analyse the service
concerning windows and updates on run command. but if the semptoms is maybe a
months old yet cannot repair by any utillty and antivirus and still windows
deffender is still showing the error code i suggest that backup your file anf
reformat your hard drive using DOS bootable disk.

ow would one run this tool that you speakf.

I had all these problems: Windows Auto Update wouldn't enable in Services
(Start>Run>services.msc>Ok), and wasn't able to download them straight from
Microsoft.com. I eventually discovered that I had a Trojan Horse called Vundo
on my machine.
I was referred to MalwareBytes.org and downloaded MalwareBytes Anti-Malware
program. It scanned my machine and found things that McAfee and other
Registry cleaners couldn't....to include Vundo. I had it remove Vundo and the
others, reboot my machine, and was able to turn on Auto Updates with no
issues. Whew! I highly suggest this program. I tried all the other stuff
that I read on this forum and others, to include Windows Defender, deleting
all the WU*.dll file in the System32 folder in Safe Mode, running several
Registry cleaners, etc. A simple download of MalwareBytes took care of it.
