Super_Spartan 56 Posted April 5, 2022 Posted April 5, 2022 This is the first time I ever face this, I just installed Windowds 11 Pro For workstations but this time rather than installing it in AHCI mode, I set the BIOS to RAID and loaded the Intel Rapid Storage (RAID Driver). I installed all the drivers, did all the Windows updates, installed all my apps, just like I always do. The first thing I noticed is, usually when I install NOD32, it takes 3 seconds literally to install and startup. This time after it finished installing, it hung at the last phase of installation for like 2 minutes then it loaded up. I tried to import my previous settings XML but that failed. Then I tried to add an exclusion, it shows me this: I then uninstalled it and restarted, then went into safe mode and ran the ESET unistaller and then tried to do the installation again, same exact problem. I have no other security app installed and Windows defender is disabled from its roots as I always do including all of its services.
Administrators Marcos 5,408 Posted April 5, 2022 Administrators Posted April 5, 2022 Do you have UAC enabled? Are you presented with an UAC dialog when attempting to perform other operations requiring administrator permissions?

Mr_Frog 15 Posted April 6, 2022 Posted April 6, 2022 I had a same experience like this when i added some rules in firewall. This problem will not occur if i open ESET GUI as administrator. I don't know, but just asking to you @Marcos, is this relate to this: https://support.eset.com/en/ca8223-local-privilege-escalation-vulnerability-fixed-in-eset-products-for-windows
Administrators Marcos 5,408 Posted April 6, 2022 Administrators Posted April 6, 2022 Please try to export just one specific setting controlled by a switch, e.g. Network drives in the real-time protection setup and check if you can import such xml: During the test generate a new log with Procmon and provide me with the new log as well as the full path to the cfg file that you attempted to import.
Solution Super_Spartan 56 Posted April 9, 2022 Author Solution Posted April 9, 2022 I think I figured out the problem. The only different thing I have done recently is I used a Program called NetOptimizer which supposedly is supposed to optimize my internet. This time, I formatted again and installed Panda Antivirus and the Antivirus wouldn't load. I tried reinstalling it again but same result. I think that bogus program is doing some weird settings in Windows that's messing it up.
Administrators Marcos 5,408 Posted April 9, 2022 Administrators Posted April 9, 2022 I've installed the trial version which allows to optimize only metered connections but didn't notice any issues like you did. Did you purchase a license and activated a full version?

Did you purchase a license and activated a full version? Yes offcourse, paid license: I had it do the full automatic optimization but the erratic system behaviour hjappened on multiple installs for both NOD32 and Panda once I stopped using NetOptimizer I didn't have the issue with NOD32 or Panda not even starting after it installed.
