Windows Defender Offline updates not working

As so often happens with new MS products, I just wasted a half a day trying to use this Windows Defender Offline.

Each time I try to update the definitions, it ends in an error:

"Virus and spyware defintions update failed.

Error Code 0x80072f76

Error description: Windows Defender Offline couldn't install the defintion updates. Please try again later"

Tried this while booting to a WDO CD, then to a WDO USB key. Same thing.

There is nothing inthe user interface to configure the networking, so I don't even know if it has a driver that works with the computer I'm booting.

Since there doesn't appear to be anything online, can anyone there suggest how to get this to work? What a waste of time!

 

WDO Version: 4.0.1111.0

Antimalware Client Version: 4.0.1111.0

Engine Version: 1.1.7702.0

AV definition: 1.0.0.0.0

Antispyware definition: 1.0.0.0.0
