In our company (1000+ workstations) we use a modified NOD32 AV with the use of a custom cfg.xml, configured with eRAS3.
When installing NOD32 AV4 all settings from the custom cfg.xml are imported except the Userinterface settings (ShowSplash, ShowBalloon, warning messages etc.), you have to define them manualy after the install.

With version 3 those settings where applied just fine, but they are ignored at setup with version 4, how come?

Since these are per-user settings, make sure to mark the option "Supress user settings" and set it to Yes.

Hello Marcos,

I got the same problem than gjdb (http://www.wilderssecurity.com/member.php?u=91072).
I confirm that the latest antivirus "NOD32 - 4.0.437 - Fra" does not take care of the following xml values when importing conf settings:

<NODE NAME="ShowSplash" VALUE="0" TYPE="DWORD" />
even with

<NODE NAME="IgnoreUserSettings" VALUE="1" TYPE="DWORD" />

The ShowSplash value was correctly applied with "3.0.684 - Fra" version.
Tell us if something can be added to xml file in order to fix this problem in v4.

Best regards,

Marcos

Could you confirm or deny that changing these settings does not take effect even after restarting egui.exe?

You were right ! This is the main difference between 3.x and 4.x version.
What I did:

Reset default parameters to all options
Reboot computer
Splash screen appears
Import my settings with xml file
Reboot computer
Splash screen hidden and other options applied :)
