    When I try to scan my system, I get the following error message:
    "Windows Defender Encountered an error: 0x80004300. Invalid Pointer"

    Anyone have any suggestions?

    Also, keep in mind that it is still in beta. Errors are undoubtedly going to happen. But, you probably knew that already. Just checking.
