Error: Please make sure Process Guard is installed correctly...

[tech-addict]

Haven't changed anything on my system in months but all of a sudden I get this error (see ss) the protection seems to be enabled but the gui is not loading.
-{ Quote: "
24 Aug 10:02:08 - Initializing Process Guard over 2 steps. If either step fails some protection may not be active.
24 Aug 10:02:09 - [1 of 2] Success: Driver is active and secure.
24 Aug 10:02:09 - [2 of 2] Success: Process Guard's Protection is currently Enabled.
24 Aug 10:02:09 - General Protection Options
24 Aug 10:02:09 - [1 of 4] Block End-Task is disabled.
24 Aug 10:02:09 - [2 of 4] Block Appinit registry key is enabled.
24 Aug 10:02:09 - [3 of 4] Block Drivers/Services is enabled.
24 Aug 10:02:09 - [4 of 4] Block Global Hooks is disabled." }-

So I'm not sure what this might be / what to look for, any help will be appreciated.
TIA :)

Hi tech-addict, I am not sure about this one.:(
Are your protected apps & checksum list still visible in the Process Guard GUI? If not then it is possibly one or both .dat files are corrupt. hese can be found in your system32 folder pguard.dat and PGhash.dat.
Have you done a defrag lately as this sometimes helps? Or the other possibility is that your PG registry settings have been messed up.
You may have to await a reply from DCS on this.

Hi, thanks for the reply :)
Well nothing's missing or corrupt as far as I can tell, I can start the gui manually after windows is done booting and all protection / checksums are there.

It is only on bootup that I get the error, and I have tried defragging before I posted the problem so I'm not sure what else I can do short of re-installing (which I'd rather not do) :(

[tech-addict]

Well when's the next version being released ? Maybe that will fix my problem :(

[Pilli]

One to two weeks ;)

Hi Rulpar, What version of Process Guard does your comment refer to please?

Thanks. Pilli

The version running is v2.000
The symptoms are as described above in the original request. Closing the error message seems to suffice as process guard is running (i.e. one doesn't have to start it manually). However for remote start up it's a pain.

Thanks for any information
