When I look at the history of installed WD definitions updates in Win 10 Pro (1809), some of them are marked with a (2) at the end of the line on the list. Does anybody know what that (2) means?
Just curious...

I see multiple dates with 2 WD definitions updates too. In the example I posted above, the first update for today has the (2), not the second one. So that doesn't explain it.
I thought maybe the (2) meant it's the second attempt to install the update, but I don't see another one with the same update number marked "failed" in the history. So that doesn't explain it either.
And on many -but not all- dates with only a single WD definitions update it's marked (2) too. So that doesn't explain it.
Don't know if this is unique to 1809. Don't remember if I had any marked with (2) with 1803.
Color me confused by another of the mysteries of Redmond!
