CIS blocks all unknown actions when CIS is closed [M1438]

When CIS is closed (exited), the default has always been to block.
Since closing the program is really only closing the GUI, of course you won’t receive alerts.
This is not a bug, but rather by design, a good one at that.

So what does that one HIPS setting do?

If you enabled it and then shutdown the gui plus all services then it’s function is active, any unknown requests will be refused.

Without the box ticked everything should run without problems with default settings whilst the gui plus services are shutdown.

In other words if you want to test if CIS is causing an issue on your computer there is no way to shut it down, you need to uninstall it?

In one word Yes

That is the idea of CIS no how hard you try to kill it when it is install on a clean computer it always works

Though with the proviso that where there is the will there will always be a way
