Hello,
When trying to install Windows Defender, the file downloads normally BUT when I proceed with the installation, I get Error 1327 Invalid Drive: E:\ and the installation cannot continue. E is actually my external drive that is not connected.
How can I install Windows Defender and avoid the error message?
Do I really need to connect my external drive?
Thank you for your responses.

lol! The answer was found a long time ago!
Here, do this! :
Invalid drive issue.
This often occurs when a drive has been deleted or its letter has been changed.
The solution is to remove all references to this drive in the registry.
Procedure:
- Open Regedit.exe
- Edit menu: Find. In the field, enter X:\, X being the letter of the intruder drive.
- Delete the key that contains a path with X:\blablablabla\blablabla
- Press F3 to display the next entry and delete it
- Do this until the search yields no more results.
- Close the registry, and you're done.
If all goes well, you will now be able to install and uninstall programs without any issues.
