Windefender AV Signature Updates Cannot be Scheduled
Hey all! We have some workstations that we'd like to schedule WD AV Signature Updates on, rather than having them scanned/DL'd/installed on the standard frequency, and we've run into some trouble. ...
Not sure what you mean by this, could you elaborate? How does this relate to Windefender AV Sig scheduling?
with Intune you can control the defender AV sig scheduling, please refer to the below link for more details

- Oh I see! Thank you for that, there's quite a bit to go through. I'll let you know if this helps, and we appreciate it!

- So after reading through the linked article, I can say we've already tried that, and it hasn't had any effect. We don't use Windows Intune, we're on Win10 Enterprise for these terminals.
We set the " Specify the interval to check for definition updates" GPO to 24, to have it check once per day, and set the "Specify the time to check for definition updates" to 60 (for 01:00), but it still seems to check at random times during the day, and installs the updates at that time.
