Yellow alert for an active account?

My webroot PC protection (W10 64) turned on the yellow alert. It says there's a problem in the 'my account' section, but there's nothing wrong there. It confirms that I have an active subscription, good for another 100 and some days. I followed the 'access web console', opened my webroot page and there was nothing wrong there. What is this yellow alert for? Sell me more licenses through terror? :) Please, help! Thanks!

Status Notification Screen

Under Settings --->Install Settings there is a check box for "Show a status notification screen on bootup." I have that checked, but I never receive any notifications on bootup from Webroot.

One Device Shows Expired

I have a 5 device license and just noticed my laptop shows as expired online, but shows active with a current key on my laptop. My other devices all show active. How do I fix this? Hasn't had a scan since 2017. No emails or anything from webroot. My wife's phone also shows as needing attention in the console. Again no email or contact from webroot about this either. What am I paying for?

Secure anywhere didn't start

After 'temporarily' disabling Webroot to install a printer program, the WR control center did not start. Tried to re start it from the program list, but luck. Tried to re-download but seems like that is taking a real long time Is there a relatively painless way to re activate the program?

My passwords did not move over when I signed into Lastpass, I have tried every thing. I contacted Lastpass and he told me to delete my account and reopen a new one. I did that now my support ticket I cannot access and every thing he told me is gone. Can you please help? I need to get a copy of my passwords and log on information. Thanks for any help you can give me, Trudy

Webroot's scan time is really good

Hi. I recently installed the trial version of Webroot Secure Anywhere Complete for testing purposes because I had not used Webroot before. I noticed that the deep scans take less than 4 minutes. That's incredibly fast. I'm impressed by its speed. Are you sure it scans everything? It doesn't seem to find any threats on my PC, which is suspicious. :thinking:

Mobile device will not show up in account.

I have Webroot SecureAnywhere Complete. My PC is protected through the account and I had an Android mobile device protected through the account. My Android mobile device needed to be replaced, so I had to re-upload the Webroot to the new device (also Android). This was done successfully and everything was fine. Then there was an issue with the new mobile device and it needed to be reset. I reinstalled Webroot on the new device and went to finish activating it, and it told me this could not be completed because the device was already being processed. So I deleted the mobile device from my account, un/re-installed the Webroot app, and reset the password. The app is working fine on the phone now, but my account will not acknowledge the mobile device. I've restarted the phone, and re-logged in to the account multiple times to no avail.

60GB Database files? Just... no.

I started noticing my harddrive space was dropping rather rapidly once Webroot came into my life. After a quick search online I see --multiple-- topics talking about database files that are anywhere from a few gig to several tens of gigs in size. Help me understand why this is? Is this bad garbage collection? Poor programming? The other competing softwares in this domain have a footprint of FAR less than this. My own Webroot which has been installed for about 3 months managed to grow its DB files to a gargantuan 60GB. That is absurd by any metric you measure by. Go to an IT Enterprise manager and attempt to sell this product to a corporation or business where it is writing gigabytes of files onto a local PC on a daily/weekly basis. Why is this still an issue when I see threads dating back years regarding this EXACT problem. This is 100% not OK and I would have never purchased this software if I had known I would have to 'babysit' its Program Data directory.

Renewal seems a bit of a ripoff

I just got my renewal notice for my secure anywhere complete, for the price of $70.  The only problem is that there are coupons available, from Webroot itself, for 29.99 for new subscriptions.    WTF happened to the concept of rewarding loyalty?  I went through this same nonsense from my mobile phone company.  I just went through this crap from my mobile phone provider, and my reaction is the same; the competition offers pretty much the same product at a much better price.  Switching is as easy as uninstalling one product and installing another, which is my plan if Webroot doesn't make a reasonable counter offer.   Companies have to EARN loyalty, not demand it.  As soon as I click POST, I'll be removing the auto renew option from my profile.    Get with it, folks.  I'm happy with your product, but not so happy that I will suffer getting ripped off to use it.

Password Manager problem

Everything on my computer is working perfectly except for the Webroot Password Manager.  When I attempt to log into it from Chrome or Firefox I get an error message: "An error occurred while attempting to contact the server. Please check your internet connection" When I go to my web console and attempt to access passwords I get this error message: "This site says login failed   reason=ajax error".   I have Webroot complete on a laptop i7, Windows 10 pro, 16 gigs of ram and tons of free disc space. I am able to access all sites on the internet and am networked in to a desktop with no issues.  The only place I am getting this ajax error is when I attempt to access the Webroot password manager. I see elsewhere on this forum that Webroot is going to issue a new Password Manager in January or February 2019.  Do you think I should just wait and see what happens and if this issue gets fixed or send a support ticket?   Any other ideas? Regards, Tom Mitch

Mobile app for Android SECURITY screen missing some options

Running version 5.5.5.38787, of secure anywhere, wit premier subscription. On a ONEPLUS 6A Android version 9 phone, running OxygenOS vers 1.0.13. Ever since the last update to Secure Anywhere, aster the high battery drain issue., I am missing some menu functionality from the antivirus security screen. There is no menu available to change scan frequency, check for updates and I cannot turn my shields on or off. My renewal is coming up soon, but for the price asked, it's not worth it if the app doesn't work as claimed. I have looked everywhere in the app but these settings are not to be found. My license is current and good. Any suggestions on how I can get all my functionality back?

Microsoft Office Issue

Anytime Microsoft Office updates, it looses it's association with it's files for instance opening an excel file from the desktop or another folder path. If I disable webroot and run a repair, or before running office update, this does not happen. I noticed someone else having the issue ([url=https://community.webroot.com/webroot-secureanywhere-complete-14/6-hours-with-microsoft-support-to-find-out-webroot-blocks-excel-registry-changes-325731#post325799]https://community.webroot.com/webroot-secureanywhere-complete-14/6-hours-with-microsoft-support-to-find-out-webroot-blocks-excel-registry-changes-325731#post325799[/url]) but does not seem to be a fix listed. Thanks in advance.

Subscription Renewal

Hi, I have used webrrot for 5 years or more and I was just going to renew my internet securtiy complete, but is is $99 aussie dollars, about 20 more than just buying it again, so I started shopping around and it can be purchased far cheaper elsewhere and on top of that products like bitdefender and kaspersky are less exspensive to just buy a new copy of.  I am wondering before I jump ship does anyone knows of anywhere reputable to purchase a renewal at a  reasonable price.    Last time my renewal came up I chatted with a community rep who gave me an awesome multi year deal at a good price, but that chat option does not see to be available any longer and jumping through hoops everytime I renew and buy a new sub and having it changed over to my current account for password manager is sort a annoying.   I asked this question also on twitter a few days ago but not heard back, so sort of wondering if webroot cares about old custome

Day 4 and my passwords are still missing and WR can't do anything nor LastPass

It's been 4 days since I reported my passwords are missing from the transition from WR/LastPass to the LastPass interface. WR support says they can't help and LastPass won't let you speak with anyone, the only thing you can do is log a ticket. My ticket has said "Pending" for 4 days now. I am speechless. Is there anything anyone can do to help?
