One of the pc's is constantly prompting for reboot after a while.

When you do, it is a matter of minutes an the f-secure asks for reboot again.

BTW: The error message is my translation of the German "Bei F-Secure ist ein Fehler aufgetreten, und es ist ein Geräteneustart erforderlich"

    Hello @osecure

    Thank you for your post.

    Please provide more details, which will help us analyze the problem and look for a solution.

    1. Is the problem on a Windows 10 or 11 device?
    2. Does the message appear during program installation or already on the installed program?
    3. Since when does this message appear?
    4. Please also send us a screenshot of the message that is displayed.

    One of the most common causes of this message is the failure to install Windows updates, so we ask you to follow the instructions in the article posted on our forum: Updating or installing F-Secure apps on some Windows versions fails due to missing Windows updates - F-Secure Community

    If the problem persists despite the installation of Windows updates, let us know and we will make sure to provide further assistance.

    Best regards.

    Pawel
