    Hi,
    Sorry for the inconvenience, V2.67 can't update to V2.71 directly, since V2.71 is still a beta version. After V2.72 is released, V2.67 can get updated after then.
    In the LUA account, you need to manually start WVSX. In the admin account, WVSX can start automatically. The main program handle updates.

    Sorry. V2.71 is a beta version, V2.67 can't update to it directly and the installer on our official site is still V2.67.
    The download link of V2.71:

    Thanks for answering!

    Can I set WV main program as a scheduled task so that I am automatically protected after startup when using LUA? When using scheduled task the main program can be seen with the Task Manager, but I do not see the icon in the taskbar, not in the LUA and not in the admin account. Starting the main program again does not help. The icon cannot be seen and the UI cannot thus be seen nor used.

    Hi@WiseVector

    For information to those who use Shadow Defender and Wise Vector Tech Support

    I use WiseVector StopX v2.71 in conjunction with Shadow Defender v1.5.0.726 on Win 10.

    Prior to the update to WiseVector 2.71 this week everything worked OK. After the update Shadow Defender does not go into Shadow mode.

    If you disable Wise Vector protection Shadow Defender works OK

    So grateful WV and others confirm that there is a problem.

    Terry

    Hi WiseVector

    Just a question please.
    Does WS can replace antivirus soft. It is enough to disable Microsoft antivirus Defender and just have WS in real time with spyshelter premium.

    Thanks

    In my post #1029 the photo was taken from your official website and it was shown as WiseVector StopX V2.71
    Now you changed to WiseVector StopX V2.71 Beta.

    You may have to edit your post #1015 too =

    Hi @ WiseVector

    Reference my post 1032

    your post 1035

    Stapps post 1036

    I am using Win 10 - Version 10.0.19042 Build 19042

    The WiseVector update this morning was an Automatic one. Given Stapps comments I downloaded the version he used ie https://update2.wisevector.com/WiseVector_StopX_V27.exe

    First, I installed over the top of my existing WiseVector. Re-Started and re-tried Shadow Defender. STILL NOT WORKING

    Second, I completely uninstalled Wise Vector. Then cleared out all the remaining Registry/and folder entries.

    Third, I reinstalled WiseVector and retried Shadow Defender. STILL NOT WORKING

    Fourth, if I untick Basic Protection in WiseVector. Shadow Defender WORKS.

    I hope this clear. Do you need any more information?

    Thanks

    Terry

    How strange Terry.
    I have Basic Protection ticked.
    I have Auto Start at startup ticked.
    I have enable real time ticked.
    Heuristics set to normal.
    In the update settings I have nothing ticked. I do it manually.
    ShadowDefender works with WV.

    This machine has Win Defender running on it as AV.

    @TerryWood, just like @stapp reported, I have updated WVSX to v2.71 (same settings as @stapp) and have not experienced any Shadow Mode issues when using SD 1.5.0.726 'on-demand' (I'm in Shadow Mode as I am writing and posting this).

    WVSX auto-updated to V2.71.
    During the update WD asked for permission to upload several related files, which I allowed.
    WD returned no threat, and did not block the update.

    Most important to me:
    WSVX does not interfere with Veeam-Agent.

    Hi @ WiseVector

    I have some more information for you.

    After reading post 1043 (Hiltihome) I remembered that there was a small problem with the auto update. It seemed to hang. I remember so I restarted the update again (auto) and it appeared to work OK.

    So, this morning I re-checked Shadow Defender to see if it was working. It was NOT working. I then unticked Basic Protection in WiseVector and Shadow Defender worked and went into Shadow Mode.

    Because of Hiltihome's post, I then decide to remove all protection from Windows Defender, (With WiseVector Fully Protected). Lo and behold Shadow Defender works and goes into Shadow Mode.

    I have narrowed it down to removing only the Real Time Protection in Windows Defender and Shadow Defender will work.

    To summarize:-

    1) Shadow Defender will NOT work if Windows Defender and WiseVector are both fully protected.

    2) If EITHER Real Time Protection (WD) or Basic Protection (WVStopX) is switched OFF and the other one remaining protected, then Shadow Defender will work.

    Please remember these results are after a FULL restore of WiseVector after cleaning registry remnants etc.

    Could this be a conflict between Windows Defender and Wise Vector?

    Hope this helps

    Terry

    Hi,
    Modern browser have built-in sandbox to prevent drive-by download attack, so please don't worry.
    Generally, setting on Aggressive, WiseVector StopX can detect more suspicious files during static scanning, but there might be more false positives. Therefore setting on Normal or High is appropriate for most users.
    There are different versions of unreal engines. Can you please send us the FP file to virus@wisevector.com? Then we can have a test and fix the issue. Thanks!

    Hi @ Wilders

    Can anyone suggest where I can download WiseVector v2.70 (Not v2.67 or v2.71beta).

    Reason I ask is because I downloaded from WV Hiltihome what I thought was v2.70, but it turned out to be v2.71

    Thanks

    Terry
