Comodo CIS 2025 did a CloudStrike (Revoked Certificate)

This is so frustrating.
I can’t believe Comodo has done a cloudstrike. All my computers (wife’s, daughter’s, and mine) are down. I can live without Comodo on my wife’s and daughter’s PCs, but not on mine. The supposedly new CisCleanupTool_x64 won’t start for some reason. I tried uninstalling Comodo in various ways according to several online guides, and what happened was that my PC had a catastrophic failure. Fortunately, I have a backup of my disk from a couple of months ago with the previous version of Comodo installed, and I had to restore it and didn’t lose much information. The previous version of Comodo is working so far as it should. I managed to get an older version of CisCleanupTool_x64 that I need to try on my other PCs to remove Comodo and install the previous version. I feel sorry for those who don’t have a backup and can’t remove Comodo to use the previous version.

Use the uninstallers in this post: https://forums.comodo.com/t/official-comodo-uninstaller-v3-2-0-82-released/314767/101

You may also need to remove leftover drivers as I describe in this post (see link below) but you’ll need the run the uninstaller first then remove the drivers and re-run the uninstaller : Remove Leftover Drivers

I’ve asked for this to be included in removing CIS/CF a number of times but not been implemented yet.
