I had the same problem, it has to do with automatic updates (even though it
says you are up to date, there are some missing). I turned off the windows
automatic update and unchecked options under recommended updates. (control
panel - windows update - change settings). Then I checked for updates - and
there were some. I installed them and then ran the windows defender update
and it worked. Don't forget to turn back on automatic updating when you are
done!
