    This is NOT the error I have, although it looks similar.

    (You replied to your own post.) The error you're getting now is not the same error (i.e., 0x8050800d) you were getting on or about 17 May or...?

    Maybe I will. Awaiting next GA/RTM type release, anticipated august 2 2016..then I can ask them. 

    One partition, live checking is happy; the other, which is a fairly new bare metal installk with maybe a dozen preview upgrades, it has either never worked, or stopped working quite quickly. The error partition has never had any other AV on it so it is a mystery to me
