    @erikloman,
    I'm sorry to report that build 582 does not resolve the issue that I reported January 24.

    On Windows 7 x64,
    with HMPA 3.6.3.582 RC1,
    when opening 3 .odt files (A,B,C), editing 2 (A,B), and not editing the third (C), and subsequently saving all 3 (A,B,C) .odt files in LibreOffice 5.2.5 x86,
    with saving the third, unedited, .odt file (C),
    CryptoGuard blocks C:\Program Files (x86)\LibreOffice 5\program\soffice.bin

    N.B. Note that this is with LibreOffice version 5.2.5 x86 on Windows 7 x64.

    As I mentioned on January 26, this is a relevant issue.
    @erikloman,
    Is there any news to report regarding your investigation of this issue?

    Have you tested with LibreOffice x86 on Windows 7 x64?
    So far, in this thread, we've only seen tests with LibreOffice x64 on Windows x64.

    Nothing new to report yet. We are very much involved in pushing code updates into business products of Sophos. These are also in this build.
    I hope we can now get around finishing the investigation on this issue. I'll put some free time into this because I can't do much during office hours.

    This is the result of our efforts though:

    I can imagine.
    Great that you'll put some free time into this. Thank you very much. :thumb:
    Let me know if you need me to test something.

    Great stuff.

    Runs great on my non Secure Boot machine along side MB 3.0.6. Very Nice work, guys! :thumb:

    Excited to try the new build with Microsoft co-signed drivers when available on my other machines.

    Build 582 RC1 working great now. Think I figured out which profile to run some poker clients under that doesn't cause hiccups.

    Will we see this feature in a coming version? Or was the implementation of this feature "cancelled"

    It should not be locked.
    go into services and restart the HMP.A service
    and see if those go away ;)

    The "locked" setting was only seen in HMPA 3.5.1 Build 548 beta.
    And because Erik replied "you found a new feature that should not be seen yet", mood informed what is the current status of that 'feature'.

    Thanks for clarifying Stupendous ;)
    My reply was only an attempt to help him not see them, not an explaination

    The Locked feature is for Sophos product where you cannot modify the settings locally. But you also see Locked when the service is not running.
    Since 582 we now show a message box instead when the service isn't running, listing brief instructions on how to to fix this.

    I understand. I replied to clarify that mood wasn't trying to fix an issue, but to ask for information about the status of the feature.

    Ah, that is great. Before, there was the complaint that some users found the service wasn't running, and there was no warning.
    The message box when the service isn't running, is that a pop-up, from the Windows system tray or otherwise? That would be good. Or is that message box only to be seen when one happens to open the HMPA GUI? That would still be not very good, as the issue will be missed if not opening the HMPA GUI.
