Hello   Tanvir Anjum，

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community forum.

Here are some steps you can try to resolve the issue:

1. Check if there are any pending updates for Windows 10 Enterprise for Virtual Desktops(22H2) and install them.
2. Try running the Windows Update troubleshooter to identify and fix any issues with Windows Update.
3. If the issue persists, you can try resetting the Windows Update components. To do this, open Command Prompt as an administrator and run the following commands: net stop wuauserv net stop cryptSvc net stop bits net stop msiserver ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 catroot2.old net start wuauserv net start cryptSvc net start bits net start msiserver
4. If none of the above steps work, you can try manually downloading and installing the latest version of Microsoft Defender Mssense agent from the Microsoft Update Catalog.

I hope the information above is helpful.

If you have any question or concern, please feel free to let us know.

Best Regards,
