A. CIS DOES NOT DO AUTOMATIC UPDATES
Can you reproduce the problem & if so how reliably?:
Yes, I have 4 real machines running Win7 (2 Ultimate x64, 1 Home x32, 1 Home x64) with CIS 8.2.0.4674. One by one I have migrated them to Win10; in all CIS firewall was not working; I must uninstall CIS and reinstall it; it has done its firsts actualization and its first scan and operates normally, except because it does not do automatic updates anymore.
If you can, exact steps to reproduce. If not, exactly what you did & what happened:
1: I have ran Win10 update;
2: after update is OK, CIS firewall was not working;
3: I have uninstalled CIS and reinstalled it.
One or two sentences explaining what actually happened:
CIS firewall e AV seems OK, but none automatic updates.
One or two sentences explaining what you expected to happen:
I expected automatic updates works normally.
If a software compatibility problem have you tried the advice to make programs work with CIS?:
The problem seems CIS does not puts its tasks in Windows scheduled tasks.
Any software except CIS/OS involved? If so - name, & exact version:
I think the problem is between CIS 8.2.0.4674 and Windows 10, with its last actualizations included today.
Any other information, eg your guess at the cause, how you tried to fix it etc:
In all these machines, in Control Panel → Administrative Tools → Task Scheduler → Task Scheduler Library → Comodo - there is NONE tasks.
I have ran CCleaner in the machines, and in Tools / Startup / Schedule Tasks / Advanced Mode, there is no Comodo entries!
Then, there is presumably a bug in Comodo 8.2.0.4674, because in some machines it does not put regular scheduled tasks in Windows system. And here others softwares can do automatic updates in Win10, like Acronis 12 etc.
Provisory solution:
- As recommended by EricJH in the Comodo Forum, I deleted the COMODO key in
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Schedule\TaskCache\Tree\COMODO
- I turned off and turned on CIS updates.
- Reboot
- in Control Panel → Administrative Tools → Task Scheduler → Task Scheduler Library → Comodo, 5 entries are now present again!
