Maximal Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 I had such a problem yesterday. The update was initialized but could not be completed. After the computer restart the update has been successful but no log. Edit: Just now the problem has been repeated. The update was initialized but after 12 minutes it was still not finished.

GT500 Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 Let's try getting a diagnostic log. Please download the Emsisoft Diagnostic Tool from the following link, and open/run it:http://cdn.emsisoft.com/EmsiDiagTool.exe When it runs, Windows will ask you if want to allow it to make changes to your computer. Please be sure to click 'Yes', as this grants the tool the administrative rights it needs to be able to collect some of the diagnostic information. The tool will not make any permanent changes to your computer. After the Emsisoft Diagnostic Tool runs, simply click "Next" at the bottom, and it will begin collecting diagnostic information and saving it to a log file on your Desktop. Note that the tool can take a few minutes to finish, and it will appear to freeze for about a minute or two while running traceroutes to our update servers. When the Emsisoft Diagnostic Tool is finished, simply click 'Close' at the bottom, and there will be a file named "EmsisoftDiagLog". When you reply to my message, simply attach the "EmsisoftDiagLog" file to your reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT500 Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 I don't see any problems in the log. Your computer can connect to our update servers, and they are responding correctly. If you open Emsisoft Anti-Malware, click on Settings in the menu at the top, click on Privacy in the menu at the top, turn off the option to use SSL for server communication, then select Updates from the menu at the top, and click on the Update now button on the right side does the update process work OK?

sdalgl72 Posted September 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 I wish I hadn't uninstalled it now and reinstalled it but the logging doesn't seem to be working properly anymore if it is updating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyNicoll Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 @GT500 - very much a side issue here, I realise, but I notice from the screenshot of the Forensic log above that the lowest entry shown: 'Update feed' has been changed to '1' isn't very meaningful to users. I think it (and any similar log messages) needs the user-setting-value ('Stable' in this case?) added to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
