Comodo won't work on win 7

I installed Comodo cmd_fw_installer_138430009_eb.exe on win 7 64 bit because the comodo stopped working.It won’t open This stops all web connectivity, no shortcut will be clickable. It asks if i want to run the agent to repair. I say yes but agent doesn’t run

I have to used the comodo uninstaller. I get message about cmdagent left in registry?

2147483650\SYSTEM\ControlSet004\services\cmdagent’ registry key. Error 5: Access is denied.

Is there any comodo free firewall only that will work on win 7. Don’t want av or dragon

Try running regedit as administrator when trying to delete the entry for cmdagent.exe.

Thanks for your reply

I ran regedit as admin and deleted cmdagent. I did not see any entry with cmdagent.exe just an empty folder with cmdagent. I rebooted and installed comodo again. . It asks for a restart but before restarting I checked and I had internet acess.

After the restart I got a pop up “Comodo Security Agent could not be started. Would you like to run diagnostic tool to fix this error?”. I clicked yes but the tool did not run.

I had no internet access. Clicking on bookmarks had no effect. Thunderbird,which starts when my computer starts,crashed. Whatever it was seems to be after the Comodo restart. It’s like the firewall is locked at block all but with no diagnostic tool there is no fix

Hi Oakston,

Thank you for reporting.
Could you please check with the below cis version ?

Note: please uncheck the Av option and install only Firewall.
And currently the link to download CIS has an issue .
We will let you know once fixed. Then try and check .

Thanks

Download link not working. Can I get old versions from Comodo?

You might need to use version .8012 for Windows 7. Ensure both Service Packs 1 & 2 are installed. There’s an issue with the download site at the moment so you can download a copy here: https://filehippo.com/download_comodo/. though you may still experience signature update error until it’s resolved. If using .8012, ensure you choose options with the installer as the old version came with extra software which you may not want to use as things like Comodo Security Essentials and Dragon are pretty much discontinued now and CISE only worked with Firefox and Explorer.

I found an old installer on my computer

The problem with the download has been fixed. Installers and updates are available again.
