Hi all,
Just a comment on this
Q:
Can i allow the update from CFP 3.0.x to CIS 3.5.x ?
A:
If your CFP 3.0.x prompts you for updating the software there should not be any problems going from 3.0.x to CIS 3.5.x but you’ll only get the Firewall/Defense+ NOT the Anti-virus this way.
Well, got three machines and all do the following:
New update available… (the auto one that is)
Click YES… updating…
All looks ok after reboot… BUT
Next day …
Update available… (same update…) plus the dreaded dual startup lines of two CPFs in registry…(pops the window up)
Cause: The update DOES NOT remove 3.0 version and it DOES NOT PORPERLY install 3.5 in the “new” program name directory… thus … the updater looks for version… finds the “version file” in old directory which does not match the loaded version (which was update and put i old (wrong directory) thus mixed installation (program states 3.5 but version file 3.0)
To end it all and FIX it… ONLY way currently to get a smooth transition is to download CPF 3.5 , unplug “internet”, REMOVE CPF 3.0 with add/remove programs… run installation of CPF 3.5 program, plug in Internet and there you are…
BUT Auto-updating from 3.0 to 3.5 does not work properly… (how about fix ? ) :THNK
