Administrators Marcos 4,935 Posted December 18, 2022 Administrators Share Posted December 18, 2022 Please elaborate more on what the problem is and how to reproduce it. Does temporarily disabling protocol filtering in the advanced setup make a difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since disabling it didn't make any difference, does the issue go away after uninstalling ESET and returns after installing the latest version from scratch with default settings? Does using a different browser make a difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deliware 0 Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 no, the issue does not go away still in the opera gx browser (the main one im using). but it seems to be working better in google chrome as of now (i only tried it for like 10 minutes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
