The main purpose of this hot-fix is to address creation of QualityCompat registry key during installation and update as required by Microsoft Meltdown-Spectre patch KB4056892. Last production version 619 is fully compatible with Meltdown-Spectre patch in all operating systems.
We will be releasing updates to older CAV versions on 8th Jan, 2018. In the mean time if you want to update from older CCAV version to this version, you can use following entries in Windows hosts (c:/windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts) file and use Update function:
I think Classic theme should be removed. New design and themes light and dark are good. Can you give us Classic theme with New Design too i.e design or GUI or look should be the same but with classic theme i.e colors, fonts, etc (its arcadia, right?)?
And I use CCAV with Antivirus settings “cloud file checking timeout” set to 15000 instead of 2500ms, 15000ms means 15secs, right?
I guess it doesn’t affect CCAV or make it heavy, right?
What about removing it and replacing with new enclosed one Luna_Dark?

Time out matters when server is slow, in best cases server responds fast and time out has no relevance. Of last months we have stablized servers with multiple client and server side changes and it's rock solid now. So extended time out in general has no performance hit. And yes, 15000 means 15sec.
We have a dark and a light theme. Classic is a bright theme, text, color, etc are clear and easy on eyes. Classic theme for the new design or GUI would be good.
Install CCAV and complete the quick scan and restart the system.
After system restart, disconnect net and try to run few programs… the programs take very long time to run.
Win 10 Pro 64 Bits with 6GB RAM
Windows Firewall and CCAV (sandbox settings set to “ask for untrusted” and “block incoming” and “block outgoing” enabled and “upload unknown to Valkyrie” disabled)
I did as mentioned above and tried to run 7-8 programs, in 3-4 mins I received alerts for 3-4 programs, I waited for 1-2 mins and rest programs didn’t run, I connected net and rest programs appeared.
And I have a program that Valkyrie detect as malware.
Default CCAV - I run the program and get malware alert.
Reinstall CCAV and Sandbox Settings set to “ask for untrusted” - I get Sandbox alert - shouldn’t I get malware alert? i.e program detection is in Valkyrie database so no need to run the program in sandbox to get malware detection, right?
And as mentioned above “upload unknown to Valkyrie is disabled” But this shouldn’t affect the detection i.e program is known and in Valkyrie database so Cloud AV should detect and no need upload, right?
That explains and is the downside of increased “timeout” as application waits for that long, when you have high time out and network not available.
Can you please share feedback with some unknown files but with default 2500 msec?
This is one of rare cases of files, where Valkyrie has verdict as malware and file not synced in cloud yet! Thanks for reporting.
We are investigating. Due to that anomaly you see unexpected behavior else upon execution you should have seen malware alert.
I tested default 2.5 secs and increased 15 secs and net disconnected again.
Default was good and increased too was kinda good this time with couple secs freezes few times i.e the small blue spinning circle and once CCAV alert for the applications appeared the blue circle would be back to arrow.
I think 5 secs would be optimal and better so I have set to 5 secs now.
Is the file really malware?
The file is created by a kinda trusted member of a forum.
The fastest CCAV ever for my computer! The actions are fast while surfing in my documents. Valkyrie response is nice (even I submit files manually on forum) I still don’t use to submit over CCAV There is no unknown running on my PC.
Thank you devs & beta testers for your hard work :-TU
