What is the difference between Home and Business versions? From the system requirements here, the Home version supports for the latest Mac OS version Sequoia, but the Business Endpoint version doesn’t? Only Mac Ventura?
Anyone else see this issue and hopefully have a work around:When I mount a DMG disk image, or plug in a USB drive to my MacBookPro, I cannot eject it because I am told one or more programs may be using it. This even happens if NO programs are shown as running. I have noted that if I quit WSA (shut it down) I can then eject these drives But WSA scanning the drives it seems leaves some process open that still has an active pin to the drives. I do not want to force eject an HD, or even a DMG as it can damage the image or drive. Suggestions anyone? (FYI: Webroot Customer Service suggested I shut down WSA, eject the drive, and then turn it back on. WORST SOLUTION EVER.)
So I always remembered Secure Anywhere being fast. I haven’t payed attention to it in a long time as far as scanning time goes. I just renewed my subscription and went through the settings again. I was noticing over the past few days that there was no last scan info. Then I see the program isn’t finishing a scan even after 9 hours. From what I can see it is slowing down in the user/library/CloudStorage folder. I have put the folder in the “Ignore” but it still seems to scan it. I tried to save and look at a log file but when I look at the timestamp it’s not listing the CloudStorage folder. I know its scanning the Dropbox folder as I can see the files while it’s scanning and they are only located there. Another odd thing is 95% of my dropbox is offline. Any thoughts appreciated…Mac OSX Sequoia 15.2Webroot Version 9.6.4.85: 1729
Trying to delete devices from my account. Instructions state to click the “Commands” tab, but there isn’t one on any of the devices in my account. The only tabs that appear are “About” and “Scan Information”
Sorry I have been missing for a while, but I have not been in a very good mood about both Webroot or Carbonite lately. Carbonite has been telling me that my account has been disabled every single day. I have followed all the instructions from the documentation on how to work around this issue, which is basically turning off the No IP tracking feature on EVERY WiFi connection I use and on Ethernet connections as well, and then reinstalling Carbonite each time the disabled message appears. After having done that more than 2 dozen times over many weeks, and it still will not finish a backup, I finally got a customer service call and chatted with the technical team to be told “They are working on the problem.” But I’m still getting emails telling me my backup is out of date. No, really? Sigh!. As for Webroot WSA, every time I reboot I get multiple warnings about potential security issues on system files, mostly .plist files. EVERY TIME! The number changes, but I have received as many a
I get an error message when trying to log into one of my machines. It says to check my internet connection which works fine. Other machines of mine don’t have any issues.
I'm attempting to update my subscription and found a 50% off at Webroot main page is this offer for the 2025 version of the program
BonjourJe viens d’acheter Wondershare Uniconverter 16.Il est possible d’améliorer les vidéos avec l’intelligence artificielle.Je découvre que le traitement des vidéos s’effectue à distance sur leurs serveurs. De grandes quantités de données leur sont donc transférées. Cela me rend méfiant, car je pensais que le logiciel traitait mes données sur le PC et non ailleurs, en Chine en l’occurrence.Il semble que certaines IP soient demandées en même temps :3.222.32.673.223.153.2253.165.136.1063.165.136.1243.165.136.115Les adresses IP 3.222.32.67 et 3.223.153.225 semblent rejoindre le domaine www.proxysite.comIl semble que si ces IP ne sont pas autorisées, le traitement de l’IA ne fonctionne pas, bien que le fichier vidéo ait déjà été transmis.Question 1 : Y a-t-il quelque chose à craindre qu’un proxy soit contacté, surtout en sachant qu’il est déclaré malveillant ou suspect par quatre sociétés de sécurité ?Question 2 : Comment puis-je savoir si Wondershare ne transmet que des fichiers vidéo à
On January 3, 2025, my subscription, Webroot® SecureAnywhere® Internet Security Plus 3 Device 1 Year Renewal, had to end, but on December 31 I entered my account and clicked the button Renew NOw. Unfortunately the renewal was made only for one device. I need it for 3 devices. Why it was not continued as before? For many years I had it for 3 devices.
My console displays the same computer twice, why and how do i remove the duplicate, looks like found where i can deactivate one of the duplicates. Guess the question is if i deactivate it will it deactivate the other. (strange situation)
My webroot wifi security is trying to connect, its just spinning. Need help.
Once again, BaseSystem.dmg, which is part of the recovery partition installer for MacOS 10.11.6 is yet again being reported as a threat. Our MSP only offers Webroot as an AV solution, and although I wish it weren't the case, it really appears that Mac support in webroot is: "Well... if we HAVE to" level of support. I've been through the Adobe Creative Cloud crippling false positives of a year ago where if you didn't hit the right button, your CC install would be trashed. I've been through the total lack of interest in fixing the "Secure keyboard entry" conflicts with Adobe apps. I've been through the horrendously slow drive scans compared to other products. The high CPU usage... the firing off of multiple simultaneous scans... the CPU fans going nuts... The persistant Exclamation mark in the menu bar because it is going to find something wrong that isn't. Its so bad I've given up asking users to report it to me. I am normally a very civil and calm person, but this is really getting
When I try to log into Webroot VPN on one of my machines I get an error message saying I’m not connected to the internet. My other machines work just fine.
I change my internet provider to Starlink would this contribute to the message? My bandwidth and speed is more than previous may provider.
I inadvertently ran a program called story AI. Webroot flagged it so I told it to remove it. However, upon reboot it flagged 2 directories as a virus: WRCore and WRData. Finally, after 3 attempts the scan passed. Am thinking those two directories are part of webroot. Any ideas. The system never showed any ill effects, TIA
Getting warning at startup from Webroot that following is trying to install itself at every startup: Registry Key: \REGISTRY\MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\WRWTSSvcWebroot default action is to then disable that update. Is this legitimate or imposter update attempt?If legitimate, it seems to be a Webroot-related service, so why would Webroot not be recognizing it as part of its own software?Thank you!Arv
