These are the known issues we have noticed and will be fixed later:

 

• Upgrade may ask for reboot:
  this release includes so new MS visual studio DLLs that Microsoft hasn't yet distributed them through their normal windows updates.
• Banking protection flyer not shown on non-100% scaling:
  due to user interface rendering framework update (Qt 5.9).
• Main UI might fail to open:
  main UI might fail to open with Windows 7 when 16-bit colors and >= 200% scaling level is set.
  Due to user interface rendering framework update (Qt 5.9).

Thanks, upgade went somewhat smooth. During bootup some desktop icons were white and it took considerably more amount of time to fully boot up (on SSD). Otherwise seems OK so far.

 

Update:

On laptop everything went smooth (no boot delay).

Cannot open interface after update to 198, how to solve it?

And it's function doesn't work, my OS is Windows 10 1703

Hey,

Please review open dialogs to see if one says reboot is required. It would explain why GUI doesn't open

I had rebooted and reinstalled for several times, but it still broken

You should probably file a bug on beta.f-secure.com then

Hi, I have the same problem and right click scan and no response.

Hi,

 

Release 198 has a bug on Windows that has double byte language set as locale (Chinese, Japanese). The product will not work properly after upgrade or installation. You are not able to open user interface and most of other functionality is missing.

 

This will be fixed in next release.

Hello, 
Thnx for the new release.

I had such experience with F-Secure Ultralight.
Do you have other security software that uses some hooks?

I just installed this release today in a windows 7 64-bit Chinese system.

And it turns out not opening the main user interface, I could only update the components...

Also it is not working when I right-click"Scan for Viruses", so does it mean the whole software is not working? If it's like that, would I need to install a temporary software to protect my computer, or the FSP still working to protect my PC?

Thank you in advance!

Hello

I guess I should refrain to install it on my main rig.

Hey,

Unless you want to workaround by making product install in some language that has single byte locale and want to change system locale, that might be a good idea. Note that this actually constitutes most languages, Ville's post has some examples on broken ones
