Why did you uninstall CIS? Please help us improve by telling us why.

I uninstalled cause I have given up on the promised Ask option for AutoContainment.

Big fan of comodo firewall, I've been using it for years. I had to uninstall it today as i've tried everything to get it to work with WSL2 (Windows Subsystem Linux) but nothing works short of uninstalling Comodo firewall.

I hope one day it will be fixed, in the mean time it's Windows firewall lol, or maybe if I can find out which version of Comodo is still compatible with WSL2..

Cheers

... or maybe if I can find out which version of Comodo is still compatible with WSL2..

Many users here on this forum have reported that version V12.0.0.6882 works well with WSL2, later newer versions have some troubles with it.

Thanks [at]CISfan

I tried with that, but the offline installer link for it always installs the latest version of Comodo, I'm not sure where to go to to download older versions of Comodo.

Thanks!

This thread is not supposed to provide help but in this case I make an exception.

In the link below you will find plenty download links for the V12.0.0.6882 offline installer.
Please post in that thread if you need more help.

Installed a version recently because I was sick of the asian countries portscanning me while dmz'd but had to uninstall because despite being very familiar with older versions of comodo and being a power user, and disabling literally everything except the bare firewall (and then that too), my phone could not connect via lightning cable (for file transfer, photo download, or even itunes) even when device control was completely disabled... but shows up perfectly fine after uninstalling ?

I've given up on CIS because it seems like an abandonware. *Espacially* with regard to the *everyday popular programs* *constantly* hanging there in the "Blocked applications" and under "Unrecognized files". It's royally annoying with TOP hardware vendors' resident apps like Geforce experience, Logitech HUB etc. because it often even interferes with driver update process. *The* most critical usability issues have been there literally for years.

Refused for the same reason and switched to MX Linux Xfce. Used CIS for 11 years!

Is free CIS dead (you can PM me if you like)?

Hope not dead. Maybe by the New Year or in the New Year, a radically new version will be released.

Hi Bucic,

Sorry for the inconvenience, CIS didn't abandonware.
from the above post we understood that some drivers are blocked by CIS isn't it ? if not may i know what you did and what happened ?

Thanks

Some applications keep returning on the "BLOCKED APPLICATIONS" list after they have been removed from the list because some applications try to acccess memory of cmdagent.exe or other CIS components and get blocked by HIPS and then put again on the "BLOCKED APPLICATIONS" list, that's annoying.

I'm on the verge of giving up on CIS sadly after years of use, it appears to have been abandoned, and noone is talking openly or clearly about it's current state or future from Comodo. Avast manage near weekly beta's of their AV, but Comodo did one build last year, and all questions about plans for it or release dates are either ignored or answered in the vaguest possible way. Sadly I have little confidence any more - as other products are improving their sandboxing and catching up fast.

It hasn't been abandoned. We had a post from the dev just last week though no roadmap or timeline as of yet. 

Hello, members of the comodo family, I am the developer of cis. Please rest assured that we will not abandon CIS. Now the development progress has been delayed due to various reasons. I hope everyone understands and thank you for your support to comodo and CIS.

Despite lack of updates, this product's containment still blocks all ransomeware and even new ones https://forums.comodo.com/news-announcements-feedback-cis/comodo-containment-and-hips-against-recent-ransomware-t127097.0.html

Hopefully, we'll get some more communication soon about plans but C.O.M.O.D.O RT has been sorting issues people are having. There is a lengthy list of bugs but I've not experienced many of those and CIS runs in the background protecting me all the time.

Anyway, your choice to move on if you decide to.

Hi MikeDiack,

As Eric Cryptid said CIS is not going to abandoned, and the team is working on all the reported bug.
We can understand your expectation about CIS development.
We will keep your posted as soon as we get update from the team regarding the new release.
Keep supporting us.
and thanks [at]Eric Cryptid for supporting us.
