in Home Security Beta Programs

The other day I got a message that I need to reboot because ULAV was updated (or somthing like that)

That is the first time ever I recall having seen one.

Does that mean that there have not been any updates until now?

    Hello,

     

    Does that mean that there have not been any updates until now?

    I think it depends on what is changed. At least, some updates are not about any requirements for restart / reboot. But large / major upgrade with such requirement maybe.

    In addition, maybe it was "set" of updates. As a result, state where something goes wrong and need to restart ULAV services multiple times (or to do so with certain order).

     

    When I tried to use F-Secure ULAV - there were some restart prompts (since of  beta "ultralight" design and, as a result, not so complex design as with stable solutions). I do not use F-Secure ULAV already long time, so, it is unclear for me (but possible to suspect that "large" updates / upgrades are not so frequent how it was before). Thus, maybe, on current day it is rather rare situation; also, maybe if critical update is pushed - then a restart can be forced specially(?!).

     

    What was the latest module on update lists (at the time of restart prompt?).

     

    Thanks!

    Thank you for your reply Ukko.

    re

    I do not recall having seen any. Where would I see that afterwards?

    If date / timestamp is known - maybe it is possible to open F-Secure ULAV UI - choose "Updates" tab and check whether some of modules are about this timeframe.

     

    If there was further updates then (for module with requirement for restart) - perhaps - it can be still visible under logs (ProgramData folder F-Secure folder).  But I am not sure if there is specific log with useful information. I will try to check it with my systems and back if do find something.

     

    Thanks!

    However, I do not see any tabs in my UI of the ULAV.

    Yes, sorry, it was "not good" wording. If UI is not changed - by "tabs" I meant right-top(?) corner with "button" menu (bordered item). When choose it - there should be ability to sort list by some filters like "Blocked events" / "All" / "Updates" / .. / . With "Updates" filter - only updates (installed ones) should be visible.

     

    But, perhaps your quoted log with more visible information about.

     

    Thanks!

    Thanks Ukko that was totally awesome. You are the man

     

    Currentely it looks like this:

    Under the search bar you have three quick filters on the left

    The big square button opens the filter dropdown and the last one is Updates

    WHen filterd for updates it clearly shows there have been updates.
