    My apologies. You posted two (2) replies in quick succession on the 3rd but I didn't see the first one.

    Assuming KB3058515 & KB3059317 still aren't listed in Installed Updates, are one or both of them listed as failed updates in your Update History?

    1 = yes on enabling defaults setting, windows defender auto update itself through windows update. it didn't show notification either, but the problem is same, it keep out of dating every 2nd date.

    2 = near april 2013 

    3= no

    4 = KB3049563     ( 02 june - 15)

          KB3057839      (28 june- 15)

    5 = KB3074219       (03 july- 15)

    6= no
