Nod32 CC in Taskbar does not load

Nod runs on startup, I receive the Splash screen of Nod32 loading, however the Control Centre is not loaded into the taskbar. Bringing up the Task Manager shows that Nod is running. Clicking on Nod32 Control Centre in Start> Programs will load CC into the taskbar, where it stays until Windows is rebooted...

Cheers

 

Blackspear,
check the windows registry for the "nod32kui" value.

Click Start and Run. Type "regedit". In the registry tree browse to the following key:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run"

Make sure the key contains the value "nod32kui". The value data should be set to exactly to "C:\Program Files\Eset\nod32kui.exe" /WAITSERVICE.

If it the value is not there, you can create it yourself:
Right click in the value window, select "New" and "String Value". Type:
- name: nod32kui
- data: "C:\Program Files\Eset\nod32kui.exe" /WAITSERVICE

Click OK, close REGEDIT, and restart system to see if the NOD32 Control Center loads.

Hope it helps.

Thanks KOTB, that did the trick nicely

Cheers

 

No worries . Glad to help.

The CC, nod32kui.exe, is linked in the registry. The registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" contains the apps that load for every user when they login to Windows. It's like a hidden "start up" folder.

nod32krn.exe is loaded as a windows service and it can be found in Services under Administrative Tools.

Just curious, any idea what caused the CC to stop loading? Or was it that way since you installed it?

 

That way since I loaded it...

Cheers

I had this with the older version too - but it was not all the time and as far as I could see it happened after restart when Trojanhunter was loading a new ruleset that the icon was missing although the space for the icon was reserved
