QuestionUpdate forefront vulnerability engine

    Forefront Vulnerabilities Engine Deployment Status shows that my machines have old engines. After installing Definition Update for Microsoft Forefront Client Security (Security State Assessment 1.0.1710.103 Full) I still have the engines with an old version.

    I read some articles how to manually update the engine but this have not worked. Can this be done automatically some how?

    Now I have copied the manifest file from the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Forefront\Client Security\Client\SSA\Updates\Patch-1.0.1710.103 folder

    I also copied the dlls to the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Forefront\Client Security\Client\SSA folder.

    Then I restarted the server and editted the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Forefront\Client Security\1.0\SSA and changed the WorkingManifestVersion to  1.0.1710.103

    This however is not something I want to do on 200 machines....

    Have you tried Microsoft Update? That should detect the latest engine update and get you the latest installed.

    Microsoft update on 200 machines?

    Is there no way to do this automated?

    One machine to test and the results is what I'm interested in to understand if you're actually able to receive the latest engine.

    Windows update claims that there are no updates.
