Thanks in advance!

OK  Nic, I will start on this as soon as this problem I am having now with pop up messages is straightened out, because I have been trying all different options and webroot has been removed numerous times, and wright now webroot is removed and windows defender is on, but waiting on answer from Daniel to see if he wants me to try another antivirus to see if the same thing happens when windows defender is turned off and temp antivus is on,  thanks Scott.

We are OPENING up the Beta group again! We're specifically looking for Mac Beta testers to start. 
 
If you are interested in helping make our Mac product even stronger please contact @, @, or me.
 
How it works:
 
New Tester
 
  • We will send you a private message with a keycode and installation information
  • Testers provide product feedback via the Community Beta Group
  • General feedback to let us know if Webroot is working as designed
  • Specific feedback to any questions posted by Webroot on the Beta Community
  • Testers will continually receive any Webroot product updates made during the testing period
  • System requirements match our current product
  • You may leave the beta by uninstalling Webroot at any time

Okay, Thanks....
 
So, beta is for bug reporting in a private group.
 
So, only the private group has access to beta Topics. 
 
I understand.  I'm used to beta threads being open to the general Community. 
 
Thanks
 
 
"There is no support" means that if you have a problem with WSA while using a Beta version of your favorite game, a pre-release version Windows or other pre official release version of software, Webroot officially does not and cannot provide assitance with any issues or confilcts between WSA and that beta software.
 
As for bug reporting in regards to WSA Beta versions specifically, that is contained in the closed Beta group, for which Webroot only occasionally asks for additional Beta Testers.  The group is not open to new members at all times.
 
These are the policies set forth by Webroot, not the Community members.

Hi lobo001
 
Welcome to the Community Forums.
 
That should be possible...but it is up to our Community Manager ? to decide as to whether to admit you to the group. ;)
 
I would just counsel that you should not undertake beta testing on your main system as whilst WSA betas are generally very stable it is just possible that they could cause an issue and as such you result in data loss, etc...unlikely but always possible.
 
If you do get to beta test then I would recomend that you do not do so unless you have the ability to backup/image your system regulalrly as a precaution against the aforementioned possible issue a beta can cause. ;)
 
Hope that helps?
 
Regards, Baldrick

The beta is full for now so I'm not adding any more folks until we get some attrition of current beta testers.

Hi Starrchild1976
 
Welcome to the Community Forums.
 
As with all betas the WSA one goes in waves and therefore will no doubt become active again at some point, yet to be determined, in the future. So keep an eye out on this thread and who knows. ;)

Hi rnuis
 
Just to let you know I was incorrect about Nic's whereabouts over the Festive Period...it  looks like he will be working so hopefully he will get back to you sooner than I expected, in relation to your request.
 
My apologies for the misinformation.
