Antivirus can't start in a secure mode
« on: May 12, 2012, 02:51:57 AM »

Hi!
I can't start the scan in a secure mode. It says that has something with the interface. Is there a way to start the scan in a secure mode?  Thx!

Hi mahler,
Open Windows Task manager, choose File (New task), browse direct to Program Files\COMODO\COMODO Internet Security click on cmdagent then open and OK.
This should force cmdagent to start so a scan can take place.

Sorry that has not worked for you.
Does cmdagent start or is it refusing to start?

it is refusing to start. It shows the message about some kind of interface that is not beeing supported. It is the same message whether I start the scan from the console or from task manager.

I suggest you take  cce since it will be able to scan and when that is done you should take CAV database in order t avoid 80-90mb download.

You can start a scan in Safe Mode by using the right click in Explorer if I recall correctly. Select the drive or folder you want to scan --> click right --> choose "Scan with COMODO Antivirus".
