Win 10 1909. Beta updated automatically and seems to be running ok so far.

Thanks Frank for the reply.

Jeremy I will ask before anyone else does, have to restarted your machine lately?

I made EAM gui full size to check something in the logs.

Now I cannot find a way at all to resize it. I have even tried altering my screen scaling, but there is no double edged arrow around the gui to pull it to an alterable size.

Is this related to the fix you did?

So that someone can help you can you say what operating system you are using.

Also what other security software you have installed.

Have a look here

EEK stable on Win 10 64 bit 1909.

When installing and running for first time, the Recommended Reading slide appears and the first date shown is 1/1/1970

Not a big error but I thought I'd let you know.

Welchen EAM-Build verwenden Sie?
Wenn Sie eine Bildschirmskalierung von mehr als 100% verwenden, ist dies möglicherweise der Grund.

Glad to hear you are back up and running again.

Good detective work !!

Have you tried running the following in a command prompt as admin?

sfc /scannow

then, after it is finished do......

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

Have a couple of cups of coffee and a sandwich while you wait.

I tried downloading through my macbook and it does download. So it is blocked by Win10 somewhere?

I can download them all on Win 10 so it may be your location ?

What other security software do you have on the machine?

Odd.

Are you able to download the first item in the list here? (Just delete it after the download)

 https://www.ccleaner.com/ccleaner/builds

Try the second installer in the list EmsisoftAntiMalwareSetup.exe

Are you using the latest Emsisoft build Version 2020.1.0.9926 ? (perhaps not if you cannot update)

What build do you have installed?

Perhaps uninstall the build you have, reboot twice and then install the latest build.

Try the second installation from here

https://help.emsisoft.com/en/1597/download-installation/

Just a couple of quick things to try.

Have you restarted your machine ?

Have you looked in Windows Update area and checked that you have all updates installed, and none waiting to be installed?

What is the actual message that EAM gives you?

@stapp could you confirm that your screen scaling is set to higher than 100% ?

Yes.

Win 10 1909 64 bit, EAM dark mode. Fast boot off.

Following on from the last beta I occasionally have a GUI issue.

I booted up this morning and when I went to check EAM (opened via tra) I got the white GUI again.

It returned to normal after managing to close it and open it again.

Logs attached just in case they help.

Fair enough I guess marko.

Just a personal thing.

I'm pretty sure it's been like this for years Stapp - there's an old thread here where Fabian explains the reasoning behind this https://support.emsisoft.com/topic/6972-problem-with-last-update/?tab=comments#comment-41658

Well I don't agree with it  (or Fabian ***stapp waves to him)

Under Action in Forensics it says 'update finished' if you look at my screenshot.

So that should be reflected timewise in what is seen in the tray ...the update has finished.

I hover over my tray icon often to check updates are running OK. When it shows the update as an hour earlier than it should, then it is normal to think there is a problem.

This is what I am talking about. There was an update check at 15.44 but no files were updated.

But the tray shows the last update check was at 14.44

  found detections counter are hidden when you click the  'new scan'  aka 'close' button. We keep this info visible until user checked the scan results.

 

I do not believe for one moment that most users would know that they had to click 'new scan' to get rid of the 100% still scanning thing.

If there are no updates to be downloaded, is it normal for the EAM tray when you hover over it to show that the last update was an hour earlier?

For example at 14.33 there were no update files to be downloaded Forensics said, so the EAM tray when you hover says the last update was at 13.33

Surely an update, whether there were files to be downloaded or not, should show in the tray so users now it is working correctly ?

Feel free to post in the beta forum if you have any ideas on improving the functionality.

I have done...quite a few times!!

At one time an update would trigger a response in things which would stop the 'still scanning' thing. Now it doesn't.

Did you click the "New scan" button after the scan finished?  

I don't think that a scan should stay at showing 100%.

And I don't think people would automatically think ''Oh, I must click the new scan button or it will stay at 100%''
