Why would that be a feature of an internet security application? Your list contains a lot of bloat that has no place in this software. That’s an example of a bad trend that a lot of programs do these days. Just keep adding unrelated “features” until you start wondering why your computer is slowing down so much. These are terrible ideas…just awful.

Products such as Kaspersky and Eset. There are several programs like the ones you mentioned that cause bloating and the products from these two that you mention like Kaspersky and Eset are completely fast and don’t slow down the machine, anyone has an SSD and at least 4GB memory so it doesn’t slow down the machine.
CIS is unable to keep its database updated quickly, I believe that these features will never be available in CIS.

Even if it didn’t slow down the machine, there’s still no need for that. None. Temporary file cleaning is a built in Windows feature. Password management is a web browser feature and there are many multi-platform options. It would make no sense to include such a feature and waste Comodo’s development resources on nonsense.

Be more respectful in your response, we are just commenting on the ideas here in the topic.

Comodo is already way behind getting the update out and you want to pile unnecessary garbage onto the heap. No thank you. Other than “other companies pile this garbage on their programs”, there isn’t a good reason to have all of that stuff in there. I’d like them to actually finish the update they’re working on now. My word to Comodo would be to not add that junk to the program. I honestly hope they’re not taking these suggestions into consideration.

All suggestions will be awarded the same amount of time and thought. Nobody in this community is a gatekeeper of what is or isn’t a good suggestion.

Frankly, I get dizzy when I often read about what else is supposed to be packed into the program (including in the past). The fuller the better? The fuller, “more beautiful”, the safer?
It’s always the same circles, with the same people.

That’s exactly why I had to say something. A bad idea, left unchallenged, could mistakenly be taken as acceptable. My post was also a suggestion to be awarded time and thought.
Hello Cruelsister
Thank you very much Cruelsist for the reply and for your interest in my question.
Let’s take the proven case of something that happened to me.
-
I had quite a few documents from Linux, for example *.odt, and I decided to convert them all to Ms Word *.docx
-
To do this, I found an Australian software company that publishes appropriate conversion software.
-
I bought it, but didn’t test it immediately after installing it. The installation under Comodo CIS control goes off without a hitch, with no restrictions.
-
Some time later, I need it and run it to convert two documents. It works “normally”.
-
I read an article in which someone mentions that the publisher is not Australian, but Indian, with an address in Australia. It’s not the same thing. I like it less.
-
By chance, I install Roguekiller and protect my external drive D:
-
I decide to quickly perform all the conversions at once by moving all the documents to be converted into a dedicated folder on C:
-
Now more wary, during the conversion process I notice the following:
a) The software uses Word macros to convert if Word is installed. I even have the impression that it interacts with it. If not, it sends personal and private documents to their servers, which return them to me converted.
b) The software tried to read my protected folders on D: when it had no business being there.
I wish Comodo CIS had prevented this and/or warned me.
It didn’t.
Please don’t tell me it’s Roguekiller’s fault… 
To me software signed with a valid certificate has earned the right to perform undesirable actions.
I called the company in question, they were very confused and said they would make a fix very quickly.
I uninstalled everything and crushed it!
I’ve been asking for a function in Comodo CIS for a long time: it would be to be able to give information to be protected, so as to be warned if it goes out on the Net.
This already existed in eSafe Protection, ZoneAlarm and Agnitum Outpost, for example.
So, in the present case, if this had been the case, Comodo CIS would have warned me by saying "Your first and last names want to be communicated to IP address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX by the XXXX software. Do you agree?
"Do you trust this software to communicate your protected information?
"Do you trust this IP address to read your protected information?
NO!
THANK YOU COMODO CIS!

But these are good ideas.
We must try not to be clever “false friends” of Comodo by pretending to defend it, but by pushing it to be obsolete.
If the “it’s fine the way it is, don’t touch anything” trend wins out, the product is doomed to disappear.
It’s 2024, not 2020.
Artificial intelligence could already get through the loopholes on its own.
So it’s only natural to want Comodo CIS to modernize more than originally planned…

I’ve seen other products go down the road of trying to do more and more. The program gets to be a bloated mess. It waste’s CPU cycles, memory, and disk space. The functions are also redundant to programs that more sensibly use them. I’m talking about password management and temporary file cleaning specifically. You aren’t suggesting those things should be added, are you?

No when it goes into personal attacks is when things have gone too far.

Fair enough. I’ll put it in a positive way. I think it would be a good idea for Comodo to not add unnecessary features to the program.
That’s great. So do you think that CIS should start including “system utilities” that have nothing to do with dealing with malware?
From what I’m hearing, it looks like COMODO CIS 2025 Beta will be sharing the Webroot Anywhere market segment from now on.
However, we can see that its direct challenger has stifled its services and options while remaining very light.
So I think it was inappropriate to be aggressive in your response, since a competitor to Comodo CIS 2025 Beta proves you wrong.
It’s possible that certainties aren’t good either when it comes to commercial competition or cybernetic defense.
To return to the subject, I think that what Webroot is doing with Brighcloud should ostensibly be done by Comodo with Valkyrie.
Especially when it comes to Web malware protection.
Comodo would gain a lot from a marketing point of view by having an efficient cross-browser extension like the competition’s.
It’s not considerably more CPU-intensive.
Every point can and should be defended.

I just want a straightforward answer. Is that a yes, Comodo should build in features that are redundant to basic OS functions and web browser functions, or no, they should not? Again, I’m talking about a password manager, and temporary file cleaner built into CIS.
I have a technical question…
I was very insistent that Comodo CIS beta 2025 should automatically link Comodo EDR and Comodo Valkyrie.
However, I have my doubts about automating Valkyrie.
I thought I read yesterday on this forum that some of the work in Valkyrie was done by humans and not automatically by software.
I have no idea what proportion.
In that case, I must stop insisting, even if my proposal seemed to have pleased Melih a little…
Because in that case, it’s not feasible. It would be too much work for the teams.
On the other hand, I tell myself that if it wasn’t feasible, someone would have already said so…
