Icratox 2 Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 I decided to re-install Online Armor premium today due to problems I had with the firewall in the hope a clean install would do the trick after trying several things. However after starting the installer I am getting the notification that Online Armor is incompatible with Virtual Box and bridged-network drivers. The problem however is that I already uninstalled VirtualBox from this pc about a week ago, yet I am unable to install Online Armor. Is there a way to solve this problem? Thanks in advance.

Icratox 2 Posted May 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 See this thread Icratox http://support.emsisoft.com/topic/9527-i-cant-install-online-armor/ Can't believe I missed that, many thanks stapp! Last question I've got related to this, in that same topic the users refers to a thread where Christian mentioned that with editing the registry key for the particular driver you could solve the problem: http://support.emsisoft.com/topic/10147-oa-and-virtualbox-bridged-connection/ Just to confirm, does this entirely remove the driver that causes this problem or does it just remove the reference to it? I'd like to be sure before I run into other issues with Online armor Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Icratox 2 Posted May 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Hmm, that did shamefully not solve the problem for me, receiving the message again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Christian Peters 99 Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Hello, please take a look in the Registryeditor for the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VBoxNetFlt and remove it. Then please restart your computer and try again to install Online Armor. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
