Just to be sure - so now in 'Ports used' we should have '443, 0-65535' ?

am_dew Here's what I did... Go into Eset 'set up' then 'advanced setup' (bottom right) Select 'Web access protection' then expand 'Web Protocols' In 'ports used by https protocol' delete '0-65535' leaving '443'.

Thanks

I've returned the SSL/TSL filtering to 'automatic' and deleted the '0-65535' so that 443 remains alone and chromecast is now recognised. So, is it considered ok to leave it like that or should the '0-65535' only be deleted when you want to cast and re-entered at other times? If so seems a problem that needs fixing by Eset. 😐

I've selected 'interactive mode' but no filter queries ever come up for 'Chromecast' even when I select 'cast'. There are dozens of 'google chrome' hits while on various sites but nothing mentioning chromecast ever appears. Anyone know how to force a filter query for chromecast?

Ok. Thanks

I went into 'List of SSL/TLS filtered applications' selected C:\Program Files(86)\Google\Chrome\application\chrome.exe and then selected 'ignore'.

Thanks for the input Itman. I've just disabled Eset's SSL/TLS protocol scanning Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe and my Chromecast is now recognised. ☺️ Looks like that may be the problem. Is leaving this disabled likely to cause any problems or major vulnerabilities?

Marcos, Itman, Thanks for replies. I think the problem has started with the latest version. Tried all the suggestions but the problem remains. (Itman, the chromecast was not listed as blocked)

I have recently installed version 12.2.23.0 of Eset Security. After installing it I could not connect with my Google Chromecast device. ('no device found' error message when casting) If I uninstall Eset I can connect no problem. I contacted Chromecast and was told that I was the 4th person in the last few days to have experienced this problem when using Eset. I've tried reinstalling Eset but the problem continues. So Eset may be a no go if there is no fix. Is Eset aware of this and is there a fix for this?

Thanks for the reply. BPP seems to disregard whichever browser I am in and just opens in IE. If I'm using Firefox at the time it will open using IE. If I'm using Chrome at the time it will open using IE. If I have no browser open it opens IE and uses that. So how do I stop it using IE every time?

When I use Eset Banking & Payment Protection it always opens using Internet Explorer which is a browser I have installed on my pc but seldom use and do not prefer. IE is not my default browser. Will Eset Banking & Payment only work with IE? Can I get it to open using a preferred or default browser?

Guess I'm unlucky then. 10 won't install on my XP pc. Eset has this to say... hxxp://support.eset.com/kb3507/?viewlocale=en_US

Marcos, v10 won't work on XP that's why I've installed v9. It wouldn't install on my XP and I then saw that the Eset site said they no longer supported XP after v9 and suggested installing 9 if necessary.

Thanks for the reply peteyt. My small emachines (second laptop) only has XP so I was looking for an AV that would give some protection on it. Not worth the expense of upgrading the system - even if it was capable of upgrade. So was wondering if Eset's version 9 is weaker 'protection-wise' than the later versions of Eset when it comes to virus protection on XP.
