    Release 18.4 beta 2 (4.90.375):

    New features:

    • Integrated password vault in TOTAL client. Migration from standalone fs id guardian is recommended to preview the new capabilities of integrated TOTAL solution. The migration is not mandatory and any standalone F-Secure ID Protection products remain compatible with this beta program. However, browser extension can only access passwords from one of the solutions at a time.
    • "Next scheduled scan" indicator logic has been changed, it takes the date from the Windows scheduler.

    Hello,

    "Next scheduled scan" indicator logic has been changed, it takes the date from the Windows scheduler.

    So, this is limitation that when I open settings with "not elevated" mode (cannot change settings / options | greyed) - it shows something like "01.01.0001 0:00" - but when elevated (so, I can change settings / options) - it is a normal one date (which supposed to be there).

    Thanks!

    A suggestion on FS Total gui: enable the vertical resize option on the gui lower part (not only upper) it would be more convenient.

    Hello,

    unfortunately, after the latest Firefox upgrade (100) the extension installation flow has been changed. If you click the "Setup" or "Install Firefox extension" button, it will open an empty page with a blank address bar.

    Changes have been done at the Mozilla side.

    We already thinking of how to figure it out.

    Hello,

    Randomly had the experience of installing a browser extension today. I think it was already the latest Firefox (100). Updated the browser and then tried the button from fs protection settings (install Firefox extension button / or it was 'Setup' from task).

    Indeed there was an empty page. And nothing happened.

    However, address-bar was not blank. But with direct URL to extension, probably. So I had to load the page again by highlighting the URL in the address bar, or by simply focusing on it and hitting Enter.

    Which, in principle, seemed a little strange to me too.

    Although I may have confused something .. and everything was just like in the previous comment .. that is, for example, I used the settings menu in the browser (or something like that).

    Just wondering again

    According to Programs in Control panel I've got 18.4. beta 4 installed April 26

    I also had stand alone FS ID guardian 5.3. beta 4 installed May 5.

    Did not notice anything different at the time.

    Today had the Win 10 PC rebooted. Now the link to FS ID Guardian (F-Secure User Interface launcher, fs_ui_32.exe) says file version 7.20.19.0

    Above it says that you can still use the stand alone version. When I launch it I get (apparently after the upgrade)

    I do not have it on any other device, how am I supposed to get on from that point?

    @martink could you please create a bug ticket and explain what is wrong with more detail. Did you have an existing password vault with standalone that has gone missing? In the screenshot you can't click "Create master password" because your master password is weak and you are creating a new vault.

    Is there any way to adjust the font size set by the program in the system 
notification interface in the lower right corner of win10? 
Under the 4K desktop, the font is obviously smaller than other programs.
