Properties

The MSFT_MpPreference class has these properties.

CheckForSignaturesBeforeRunningScan

Data type: boolean

Access type: Read-only

When set, Windows Defender will check for new signatures before running a scan. If new signatures are found they will be downloaded and installed before the scan begins. If no new signatures are found, the scan will start based on the existing signatures.
