ERROR 0x80070490 : MpSigStubMain - Windows Defender Updates

Anonymous
2014-06-17T02:28:27+00:00

I'm seeing a similar problem - last raft of windows updates for my win8.1 x64 machine, everything works fine except the definition update for defender. I've tried downloading the definition update directly and ran the mpas-fex64.exe, which simply returns, no messages, but update still fails. Here's the mpsig* information showing defender's got some dll's out of sync. My guess is this has been failing for awhile. Any way to repair it short of a reinstall?

Yes, you can try deleting that file, it'll rebuild, but rename instead of deleting. And you can try changing registry value to MpScanCache-0.bin, instead of MpScanCache-1.bin. Registry Editor will not be able to change the value (permission problems), so you have to open Registry Editor with the method I discussed in answer to this thread:

One more question:

What is the value of SFCState key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Scan?

    Everything worked fine with the RTM installed. This problem just showed up since the defender update started to fail around June 11th.  

    Should I uninstall KB 2939155? I can't find any info on it, on Bing or Google.

    I believe everything was working before and after that KB was installed (in April - the defender tab problems are more recent than that.)

    How have you determined that one or more of the Windows Updates you installed on the 11th didn't cause the problem (i.e., versus a bad or buggy Definitions update)?

    If Defender's Update (History and/or Settings) tab is still inaccessible, I'm afraid a Refresh or a Reset will be your only recource. cf. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/restore-refresh-reset-pc

    [Ignore my question about KB2939153 - it wouldn't have been offered to your Win8.1 computer.]
