I have this same issue on all my systems. Version 17063 crashes every time I try to install it, regardless of specs.

when does the crash happen?
I personally would really recommend evaluating defender on win 10 + configuring other features. AV is a small protection (but still required) and there are other mitigations which needs to be configured.
