As people have mentioned in every other post boot sectors are scanned when something tries to access it. You scan manually scan them as far as I know but what I presume this means is when not running a manual scan boot sectors will only be scanned when something accesses it

Can you also confirm how many installations of eset you have. If Eset is installed on 1 computer but on a different harddrive or partition each instal is basically classed as 1 license. This would explain the issue why it works on your other hard drive. If after doing a full uninstall in safe mode you still have issues you can login or register to Eset Home via https://home.eset.com/ and basically remove computers from the license to free it up. The only issue is this may not be possible if your email is not registered as you mentioned buying through Amazon rather than an Eset distributor

I'm curious why you are scanning these on multiple sites in the first place. The problem is anything has the potential to flag as suspicious, but the fact no AVs are detecting them looks like these suspicious flags are false positives

I'm sure from what I read online this effects the game mainly but the problem is AVs can only protect you so far. If software itself is vulnerable the risks are higher

Can you clarify what you mean by subscription as cannot see anything anywhere online. Do you mean that eset will go to a monthly subscription option instead of yearly etc.

The frame just tells you that your using protect all browsers. I think you'll get a red or orange border even if disabled if any settings get turned off that are required

You can manage licenses at https://home.eset.com/

From what was mentioned above with threatsense parameters if it's enabled for something e.g. BIOS Eset will scan it when something accesses it. Not constantly.

As mentioned they are scanned when something accesses them

1+ from me for this for home users. I think it could be a good sell for people jumping to the premium product. I know others and myself have often said that an AV should stick to security but I think out of date software is actually a big security issue and Eset already can alert you to Windows updates

The requester mentioned he gets this if he uninstalls as well. I think doing an uninstall in safe mode might be the best option as it could be a borked installation

I'd also like to point out that KMSAuto is a crack tool. This may have ended up on there accidently but please note if you do download cracked programs there is a high risk that these could could contain malware. ITMan has posted a few stuff in the past in regards to this

I noticed he is also getting the error if he uninstalls instead of repairs but unsure if this is eset related as it mentions policy

Are you able to instal anything else? That would confirm if the issue is correct or possibly hint at an incorrect error. If it is true then it sounds like there is a general issue with windows on the machine

It may be that the payment got rejected but has went into holding

I presume there is always a risk but don't know enough to confirm what the risk factor would be

Are you able to open the files? Normally ransomware encrypts the files and also changes their extension. I've personally not heard of ransomware that would make files read only but not encrypt them but I could be wrong

Just curious what you mean by transition to subscription model as eset currently is A subscription e.g. for a year

Did it still work once eset was reinstalled?

I presume this is different issue? If removing eset doesn't fix the issue it can't be eset You could try using the special manual uninstaller via the link bellow which needs done in safe mode to make sure all eset's traces are gone but if the issue still persists eset can't be the culprit https://support.eset.com/en/kb2289-uninstall-eset-manually-using-the-eset-uninstaller-tool

Do you mean special offers? It depends on your country etc.

Actually works for me. The URL you posted had added a full stop to the link. It's that that causes the error on my end and removing works fine

Still refusing to load on my phone. I can tell it to ignore the warning but the site doesn't actually load

I get Your connection is not private Attackers might be trying to steal your information from login.eset.com. (for example, passwords, messages or credit cards). Learn more NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID

Please note this forum is for eset users so support will be very limited. You can use a trial but it might also be worth posting on a generic security site
