I have Microsoft Security Essentials version 1. However it does not seem to be able to update to version 2. Do I have to download MSE v2 to get it?

Does Microsoft Security Essentials automatically update to version 2?

It did for me, came down via Windows Update after a few days.
Make sure Microsoft Update is enabled if you use Windows 7

It does not update automatically. You have to download v2 and install it manually by running the exe. You can download v2 from here.

I have 5 computers with Win7, Vista, and XP. Despite they all have automatic updates enabled, MSE did not get updated to v2 till I manually did it. – Mehper C. Palavuzlar – 2011-01-11T07:25:08.730
I just now got the upgrade prompt, so it is automatic! – Steven – 2011-01-30T21:52:25.550
