The bug/issue
- What you did: Attempted an update to CIS 5.3 from CIS 5.3. Tooltip said updates available, so I tried an update
- What actually happened or you actually saw: Update appeared to install okay until it asked for a reboot. Would not reboot normally. I could boot into Safe Mode, but could not run uninstall from Safe Mode.
- What you expected to happen or see: I expected Comodo to restart and go to the system tray. This was not a new install, just an update.
- How you tried to fix it & what happened: From Safe Mode, I stopped CFP from loading from MSCONFIG. I could get into Windows (without a firewall). Then I tried to uninstall Comodo. Would not uninstall. Tried both CIS Cleanup Tools, which allowed me to uninstall. Then I tried a fresh download and install. This time I captured the XML diagnostic file which is attached. Went thru the same process again to remove Comodo. Am now running Windows Firewall.
