This is more or less what I do on my two computers.

I use safe mode for my install configuration. This stops new programs from being added to “my pending files”.
It would be better if you could just turn off “my pending files” during installation.

Though I appreciate the guide I question why you would suggest “4. Create an Image of your System using Comodo Backup 2 Release Candidate” while the software is still in beta testing. Wouldn’t it be wise to wait till a final product comes out with all the fixes available before suggesting this step?

I’ll change that now. Thanks.

issue 1:

Can you try SAVING as admin?

issue 2:

You need to EXPORT your “Internet Security” Configuration (Miscellaneous>Manage my Configurations) from there. Then import it again and rename it as “COMODO - Install/Update”

For issue 1, I don’t use Vista so I’m sorry, if my suggestion does not work, I’ll get a Mod or community member that works with Vista to help you.

Cheers,

This works for me but not everyone shutdown CIS gui, right click CIS shortcut choose Run as Adminstrator this can be done in Limited or Admin account.

If this does not work you have to disable UAC when you want to export your configuration.

I like to suppress alerts but I do not need the password protection feature.
I wish the alerts suppression feature be separated from password protection in the future.

With this configuration, how possible is it for someone to get infected with malware assuming they never switch into the install/update mod? Reason I ask is because I have some people who want alot of security without the hassle of learning how to use Defense +.
