    I don't see the need for this. In white list you need them to allow things that are blocked. I can't see ever using a command line thing for blocking.

    Have been enjoying my trial of 2.7.7.0 and recently tried out the latest beta build (2v11). It is working very well on Windows 8.1 (x64). I might be liking it better than Appguard!

    Cheers,

    David

    Tried the latest version in VM with Windows 8.1 x86 Pro WMC as a trial and new install.There are a few things I noticed.I installed as a advanced setting and it asked for setting-up password protection,but there password field was unmasked.Secondly for some strannge reason I do not get the new timing options in the tray,settings are same as the previous stable build including the option in settings to restore protection after 5 minutes under advanced options.

    Now after trying it in the VM I updated the latest version on Windows 8 x64 Pro WMC,as an upgrade to my previous installation,and all settings are working perfectly fine including the timing setting,however i just have one thing agaings the new timing setting,it reverts back to alert mode after you have set the timer,I think it should revert to the last active mode used.

    On one hand you're right but on another hand let assume we install some serious software and the installation process takes more than 5 minutes. In case NVT reverts into (let say previous - Lock Down mode) your installation will surely crash as after 5 minutes nothing will be passed. In case NVT revertes into Alert Mode, you have a choice wheather to whitelist the process of installation, or simply switch into Disabled mode again - not making your installation useless. That is my line of thought. But I may be wrong ;)

    I agree with you. Reverting back to lockdown during an install is bad, reverting to alert mode allows you to continue the install. Good safety feature.

    @arsenaloyal

    And

    Make me think that you downloaded the last stable version of ERP v2.7.7 ?

    It was made that way by design, because as artoor and Pete said, it is not safe to switch to lockdown mode when the installation of a program has not fully finished. It was done also because this way Alert Mode remains the default protection mode.

    @siketa

    Now I will look into the problems related to Avast setup in Windows 8.1 and when it is fixed, we can release ERP v3.0 officially. I think all that was asked has been added, in case I forgot something just post it here :)

    Sorry if the question has been asked before.:oops: Any idea if there will be any fee to upgrade from version 2.7.7 or is it a free upgrade?
    Thanks

    In FAQ you can read:
    So I hope there is no extra pay for upgrade :) Correct me if I'm wrong :rolleyes:

    No the version shows 3.0 build 2.

    I think its a bit flawed...Let me explain, I use Lockdown mode advanced majority of the time,say i need to install a software I use trust mode...now depending on the software I can set the timer to 10 minutes to until reboot.So there is no question of settings of alert mode being needed.
    Now this assumes all of us know the time it takes to install a particular software,obviously you cannot select 10 minutes to install Adobe CS suite and then expect the installation to work if last setting is used.

    The problem is your last argument is more flawed the NVT's The average user won't know that for applicatons he is installing. So for you this isn't the best, but really doesn't hurt, but inexperienced users could get themselves in trouble. The safer across the board approach is the one taken.

    In my personal experience no software takes more than an hour to install, all this option does is to make me change the mode twice which as same as before, I install/update atleast 3 to 4 software in a day you cannot expect me to keep on changing the settings to and from for lockdown to alert mode every time.

    and regarding the user base do seriously think that any user that uses EXE radar would not know the approximate time to install a software ?

    It might be helpful to have a popup that would alert a user that the time of a temporary protection mode had ended (or make such a popup an option). A popup could also offer the choice of extending the temporary mode or switching to some other mode.

    The last Beta I tried worked good for me but after about a week the trial ran out and it stopped working..

    Wow, I thought I did a lot of install/uninstalls. Arsenaloyal, you are undoubtly not the rule of thumb, and NVT has to design for the norm.

    Also I agree at this time most erp users probably do, but I am sure the goal in making this software as user friendly as it is, is to ultimately reach less experience users.

    I'm on Windows 8.1 with Sandboxie and AppGuard. I followed the instructions on here for AppGuard and partially for Sandboxie (OpenPipePath added only to the sandboxes tested).

    When I doubleclick a videofile to load up MPC-HC sandboxed, NVT-ERP lets it execute without prompting me although MPC-HC is not on the whitelist and in NVT-ERP's Menu>Settings>General "Allow all software from Program Files folder" is unchecked and in NVT-ERP's Menu>Settings>Signed Processes "No" is selected in "Do you want to allow signed processes?".
    I also tested this for unsandboxed MPC-HC with the same result.

    Why is this?

    @arsenaloyal

    I see your point now, also an user PMed me few minutes ago with a similar request. What I can do is add an option in Settings->General->"Restore protection to last active protection mode", or something similar, example:

    "What do you want to do on the protection timer ?" (better text)

    [] Restore to Alert Mode (by default this is checked)
    [] Restore to last active protection mode

    @controler

    I sent you a PM.

    @Throwawayaccount12

    Do you see anything in the Events tab ?

    It may be caused by the same issue reported with Avast setup file, I'll check it on monday to see if I have to update the kernel-mode driver for Windows 8.1.
