    Why are all profiles in the on-demand computer scan always reset to default when i upgrade to a newer v4 build?

    Which settings are not transferred to the newer build? Couldn't it be that you edited settings for the in-depth scan profile?

    Very interesting . I just noticed it happens here , too . Good job in finding this bug.

    The on-demand scanner settings (what I change only is to enable detection for potentially unsafe applications) . I checked on my personal Vista computer with SP1 (with Home edition) and also remotely logged on in a few servers I upgraded a few days ago with the new build.

    This, I also want to log all objects for context menu scans, and all options in the on-demand scan profiles are always reset to default.

    Just to make sure, are you saying that you edited the Smart scan profile or created your own that you subsequently tweaked?

    I have never created my own, I just tweaked current ones, all of them.

    Still not fixed in .437

    Having to re-configure these profiles on every PC is a PITA.

    Will it be fixed next release?

    It's already in the list of issues where it's pending for being checked by the developers.
