For your information in case others have this. Several days ago I began getting popup notifications in the upper right corner of my screen that would last about 1 to 2 seconds. The time between them varied from about every 30 minutes to about every hour and I could not associate it with any apps I was using. It was giving me warnings and there were several different ones, for examples:  “Your computer is being hacked”, “ You have malware in your computer”, “Your iCloud account is being hacked”,  “Your Bank Of America Account is being hacked”. That was a good one because I don’ thave an account with them, proving it was false notification.   I contacted Webroot Technical on three consecutive days and each time I allowed them control of my computer to determine the problem. The first two failed. They third, Jeffery, found it. Wish I could tell you what it was. It had a small icon among others but no name whereas the others were named. Every time Jeffery would turn it off, it tu

There is an icon in my task bar that looks like 2 squares, one black, the other see through whitish superimposing the black that opens to Webroot when clicked and I cant delete or remove from task bar, why?

I am attempting to cancel auto renewal for subscription. System seems to want to send acknowledgement to the email address I used to purchase the subscription. How do I gat it to send to my current email address.

Hi Community,Our Business Endpoint Protection is scheduled to renew next week.  I no longer have a company credit card to renew, however the only option I see using the online renewal is to pay via credit card.I sent multiple emails and left several voice mail messages at Webroot over the last few weeks and even opened a ticket to see if I could get someone to call me. The support people just say to contact sales and that they will have a salesperson contact me.  Nobody at Webroot has contacted me yet?  Any thoughts? This is very weird?

I play an online casino game.  While in the middle of playing one of the games the screen suddenly goes black even though I am still logged into the casino game.  When the reload button comes on it will not reload.  I have to exit completely and sign back in to the game.  So far this black screen has not affected any other action.  

I just had a bogus flashing warning on my browser window about my system being compromised.  Thanks (once again) to Webroot for protecting my system!  There are a lot of scams going on out there and it is a blessing to have RELIABLE security on my PC. Thanks for all the great work and have a great holiday season!  😘

how do I fix “some hardware may not be functioning correctly and needs to be reinstalled”? 

Why do I have to give Windows permission to open Webroot each Time I sign on?

how can I remove “resourcemanager.framework will damage your computer” if I want to print to the HP all-in-one printer?

...on Windows 8.1Should I first uninstall the old version, CE 22.4 (which expired)?  

On occasion a review of account details with Webroot is preferred for security…………  After the insertion of the email registered along with the password, the next block asks for an authentication code………..   When entering the security code the process blocks out the entries, then after three attempts forces a 15 minute lapse………. If a corrective entry is made during the Forgotten Password function, the process remains the same and will not allow valid entry……….    Apparently there is a missing link to gain access for reviewing the WebRoot account…..

I have webroot and I paid for my subscription yet I can't scan my phone. It's on the account yet there is no way that shows how to scan. I have called and been through the runaround. Why can't I scan to check for viruses?

How do I get my iPhone protected with my already paid webroot account???

I have Webroot with Geek Squad as they only sponsor Webroot and Trend Micro.I also have Malwarebyte Premium.I have a computer and several years back Geek Squad informed me that they do not sponsor Malwarebyte  and it was removed from my computer.I get 3 devices with the Webroot package from Best Buy or Geek Squad.I kept the Webroot on both of my smartphones with the Malwarebyte Premium.My Lg X Charge is getting too old to update so I am going to recycle it.I also have a very Cheap Free Government phone with Assurance Wireless it is a UMX U693CL.This phone has little Memory and very slow upload and download times.I was planning on canceling the Malwarebyte Premium to clear up some space with the memory.However Webroot recently updated the Android App.The new App is basically just the Google Chrome Browser with a scan.The scan is very fast yet it does not show what it is scanning or the results of the scan.The new App also has no Dashboard to show if my shields are on or anything at a

3 days ago Adobe reader failed and gave a message saying the .dll in the title was not available. I couldn’t fix that after trying for hours. I finally restored my entire C:\ from a backup I had from June.Everything worked although some files I had created since June were missing.Today I am back to getting that same message from Adobe Reader.I went to UN-install Adobe reader, sorted by date of install and discovered that yesterdayFirefox had installed “Mozilla Maintenance Service” and “Mozilla Firefox”.My Webroot scan does not report any problem.This is a Windows7 Pro system. Any thoughts or ideas? Thanks,Dan

I recently repurchased WIFI security for my PCs and Android phone. Since then I have not been able to connect to the VPN via my android phone, although I can login. I uninstalled the app, reinstalled, logged in successfully, but still cannot connect to the VPN. Also, to complicate things, the Android App had prompted me to "Renew", so I did but it turns out my coverage did not end until October - so I have two keycodes active? Who knows. Also, there is no option on the phone to add a keycode anyhow. I submitted a ticket to support via the phone, but the ticket did not show up in my dashboard. Any help to get the phone to connect to the VPN would be appreciated. Thanks.

I noticed the Green check marks that appear during searches were missing so I went to the Windows Icon to get to webroot and I had two listings for webroot I deleted one because I thought that the older one was a duplicate or older version. But the webroot that is left is not a shortcut to open the webroot app. When I turn on Computer I get a windows menu box that says how do you want to open file. I think that is the webroot that I have now but it never opens I tried deleting the webroot that shows up in my computer but it will not delete and says there needs to be an app to delete I tried to download Webroot again from internet but it did not open and so I would click on the download and then it would just make copies and so I had like five copies then I tried to delete these copies PLease help thanks 

Now, after I’ve Signed Up and created a new account on Carbonite+Webroot, because this is where the "Get Started" button led to, the alert keeps appearing down to the right corner of the screen, non stop.  This is the text of the alertWebroot "Sign up for My Account Manage Subscriptions, access support and more by creating a My Account profile." How do I stop this alert?

Received an email from a close friend with message about linked photos.  Link took me to a website about Oprah.  When contacted, friend said he did not send email.  Upon inspection, found several other similar emails in Span folder from same friend.  Question is, if there was a malware or other bad thing attached to the email, can Webroot detect and clear it?

I don’t know whether my virus scan is functioning properly.  I have had the same issue for almost 4 years.
