Hello mrhotdog,

0x8024402F WU_E_PT_ECP_SUCCEEDED_WITH_ERRORS

Hexadecimal Error Code
0x8024402F

Decimal Error Code
-2145107921

API Error Description
WU_E_PT_ECP_SUCCEEDED_WITH_ERRORS

In most cases, these messages are temporary or short-lived issues that are
caused by very slight interruptions in communications between the computer
that is being updated and the Windows update servers. These issues are
generally self-healing. So, before you try the troubleshooting methods in
this article, please exit the Windows Update site, wait 10 to 15 minutes,
start Windows Update again, and then check for updates. You can also let
Windows Automatic Update install the updates on its usual 24-hour cycle.

Please state your full Windows version (e.g., WinXP SP3; Vista SP1) when
posting to this newsgroup.

Can you update Defender manually via
