Hi Guys,
We are going to fix this issue asap and issue an update to CFP 3. But until we release the fix, the following steps must pprovide a temporary solution:
TEMPORARY FIX 1 :
1 - Download the file cfpfix.zip in the attachment
2 - Extract the archive into a folder e.g. c:\CFPFix
3 - Disable Defense+ by going Defense+->Advanced->Defense+ Settings and setting Defense+ Security Level slider to Disable.
4 - Right click on c:\CFPFix\update.bat file and Select "Run as administrator" option
5 - After seeing "Done...Please restart your computer and update your windows.", restart your PC
After these 5 steps, Windows updates should work without a problem.
During this time, CFP Defense+ will be disabled and unfunctional. So as soon as the updates are completed, please perform the following steps:
1 - Right click c:\CFPFix\restore.bat and Select "Run as Administrator" option
2 - After seeing "Done..Please restart your computer", restart your computer
3 - Please verify CFP is functioning properly by opening CFP and looking at Summary screen for any error reports.
4 - Enable Defense+ by going "Defense+->Advanced->Defense+ Settings"
What Temporary Fix 1 does, is simply renaming the CFP sandbox driver and effectively disabling it. After the updates are completed, it is restored.
TEMPORARY FIX 2 :
This fix is verified to work with some users:
1 - Go to Defense+->Advanced->Defense+ Settings and select "Deactivate Defense+ PErmanently" option
2 - Restart your computer and retry the updates.
3 - After the updates are completed, reacrtivate the Defense+ and restart your computer.
We are currently working on the fixes which will solve these problems.
Sorry for the inconvenience this has caused.
