Question

Multiple issues, no response from support tickets.

Sorry, but again multiple issues: some still unresolved from last contact here .

 

#1: Cannot access console.

“Error(SEL004): Console cannot be opened, please contact Webroot support”

When I log into “My Account” , suggests I have 19 PCs protected !!

#2: Webroot literally vanished from one of my PCs some time  in the last couple of weeks.

Not sure what precipitated this event.

Empty Webroot Folder in Programs

No  WRCore or WRData folders.

Pretty comprehensive uninstall !!

So:

Reinstalled.

Same base line settings as other my PCs

Now hyperlinks in Emails disconnect the internet and will not load.

Outlook will not receive.

No bookmarks will load: Internet disconnects “ Cannot load Page : Check Connections etc etc”

Disabling Webroot =  fully functional Outlook and Ethernet connection.

 

#3: I never had an answer as to why a scan quarantined a multiple Domain Zone Mappings in myu HKU registry.

For the record 3 other PCs with Webroot installed years ago working fine.

So: Problem with new install ??

Really unhappy with these LONGSTANDING issues and now phantom uninstall and broken reinstall.

If you think I’m being rude… just frustrated….

Eagerly awaiting Support Response

 

PS: Have raised support tickets: no response as yet, I note the console issue has been under review for a looong time.

Have just paid up for new license .

Been paying since PREVX...

Carbonite/Webroot: get with the program: you have a rusted on involved paying user base: would be nice to see some action.

 

Thx

LB

Hello TH

Yes I saw that...

Is this the “Console” ??

Sorry but What is that and the various Service links ??

Zero Functionality as noted by other posters compared to prev console

Promises to “look into” made over months and months

Also being asked  to renew for spy sweeper ?? 🤦‍♂️🤨

Have tried to cancel one of my subs via Webroot, but getting “reminder” emails

No option for cancelling subs on console.

As you see “19 PCs” being protected: I have 4 PCs.

Had asked for help with that on the old console.

Next new problem : a goodie !!

After doing a complete Uninstall Including Reg Keys and reinstalling on the PC where Webroot had mysteriously vanished from, now with Webroot activated and running:

Ethernet connection breaks with every bookmark and link 

Outlook Email send and receive is blocked/server connection not recognised.

Turn Webroot off; full functionality returned  ??

 

Am in touch with support via links.

Not really interested in debugging via slow email instructions. !!

Should just work.

 

Just resubscribed for 3 years.

As you can tell, not really a satisfied customer atm.

Sorry, I fear This product no longer fit for purpose.

How Do I get a refund?

Will check with PPal first, then see.

 

TH:

Thankyou for taking an interest.

 

Another example of New Console “Functionality”

Hhmm 😒

Hi ​@Longboard 

 

Sorry for the issues you are seeing and support is the only ones that can help so I was hoping ​@TylerM or ​@csaunders could explain and get help for you. Did you try contacting Support via the Ticket system? https://detail.webrootanywhere.com/servicetalk.asp?

 

Thanks,

There are not many of us happy with the New Console either. I for one am not happy.

@Longboard If you’re still thinking of a refund:

Hi Chris ​@csaunders can you get someone from the Consumer team to look at the issues we Consumers are seeing and not liking? And if possible communicate with us by posting? 

 

Thanks,

OK

Update.

Problem appears to be W11 and LM 1219 Network card according to Support after logs analysed.

This network card is notorious for causing issues with W11:

W11 and 1219_LM network card problems - Search

Totally unclear why many PCs have no issue and others do.

Unclear why one PC here = 100% usability with Webroot installed and active, and 1 basically identical setup borked for no clear reason.

Despite Support concerns re Network card being the issue, I hope I made it clear to the team that the PC functions perfectly with Webroot deactivated or uninstalled. 

Support naturally, laid the problem at the foot of the network card.

That Webroot has been breaking ethernet connections has been known from what I could find for at least 4 years.

I note the web search references various solutions for dicky networking with that card.

I didnt ‘debug” with those options, just went for a USB > Ethernet dongle as easiest option , bypassing the card and now all going seems to be going well, which seems to confirm that the 1219-LM is at least part of the issue.

No explanation for why Webroot did not show up in Start Menu after last install. Had to Launch from the WRSA.exe in Program files. Support has suggested a reinstall to check again: ill get there ...maybe.

I appreciate this may be some weird config issue that I may even be the cause of: been known to tinker a bit, or some obscure W11 issue, but a bit “cloudy”.

I've paid my subs prior to all this going off. I will prolly just leave well enough alone ftm.

However, I’m not convinced that my future is with Carbonite/Webroot.

Most recent objective testing of Webroot as has been done is not entirely reassuring.

I dont understand why Carbonite will not allow an independent test setup to be commissioned. 

The console issues are a pain. (web littered with dissatisfied customers.)

Not sure there is a future for the retail consumer.

Not even sure if Carbonite reads this forum.

For the record, once Support had gotten onto this: responded quickly and as helpfully as they could . 😊

Kudos for that.

Regards,

LB
