I am so sorry that you do not realize that Windows updates when it has discovered and counters new viruses, malware, and worse.

They said that other users had reported the same problem, but in no case had they been able to replicate the problem on their computers. Legacy Support stated that they believe that the problem is most likely a conflict with another program.

This suggests to me that the number of persons in the tree may be a factor, but clearly not the only one.
