Deploy patch Microsoft Defender fail

Did anyone deploy the patch for Microsoft Defender Antivirus?
Update for Microsoft Defender antimalware platform - Microsoft Defender Antivirus - KB4052623 (x64)
And all commands are completed. But we got the exit code -2147023291. But I can not find the code means.

The error code seems to suggest the upgrade/patch isn’t valid unless a valid product is installed. Maybe this post will help with one possible approach with error code transaltion.

Thanks for your reply. But the tools link seems can not access anymore. How to get the tool?

Hi,
You can find [configuration-manager](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/download-microsoft-endpoint-configuration-manager here) .
Download it and extract.
Under the folder .\MEM_Configmgr_2203\SMSSETUP\TOOLS you’ll find CMTrace.exe

Thanks @Geimor. It looks like Microsoft removed the standalone version so now only available with the full ConfigMgr suite.

There are internet resources for looking up error codes. I found this one that also does HRESULT, Win32, as well as decimal

MS do also have a standalone lookup tool you can run on the command line but IMHO that isn’t as user friendly

Microsoft also publishes a dump of all their products error codes here: [MS-ERREF]: Windows Error Codes
