marko 12 Posted June 4, 2020 Report Share Posted June 4, 2020 Since 2020.6 was released the other day, I'm been experiencing frequent problems with Windows Security Center not recognising that EAM is installed when I start up my machine (W10 Home 64 v1909). It doesn't happen every time, but I often get a yellow exclamation mark showing on the Windows Security icon in the system tray and EAM is not shown as turned on in WSC. On one occasion today, the protection panel in the EAM gui was Red (all protection disabled) with the message 'your computer is NOT protected' - Fix Now ! - when I clicked on Fix Now nothing happened so I had to reboot On another occasion today, Web Protection was shown as disabled but I was able to turn this back on via the EAM gui. I wasn't getting these problems before which suggests that they're happening because of the changes you've made to the WSC Integration in the latest version ?. I have some debug logs if you want them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
smf6199 4 Posted June 4, 2020 Report Share Posted June 4, 2020 I've been seeing something similar as well this week. EAM would be running, showing in the tray with protection enabled but WSC would show it as OFF (with Defender as ON having re enabled itself). It also was not consistent and I did not see any exclamation marks (though I expect because Defender had enabled itself). Reboots did not seem to solve it so as I was running the beta channel at the time I reinstalled and set to stable. Only been 24hours but has been OK so far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GT500 884 Posted June 5, 2020 Report Share Posted June 5, 2020 Try the following, and let me know if it helps: Open Emsisoft Anti-Malware (EAM). Go to Settings. Click on Advanced in the menu at the top. Disable the option for Windows Security Center integration. Close EAM. Right-click on the Windows Start button, go to Shut down or sign out, and select Restart from this menu to bypass Fast Startup. Turn the Windows Security Center integration option in EAM back on. Right-click on the Windows Start button, go to Shut down or sign out, and select Restart from this menu again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

eliastz 4 Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 With all due respect, disabling/re-enabling, unistalling/re-installing are fob-offs not fixes. I wonder how many people will be rushing to renew their EAM licenses following the disastrous updates that have been pushed out since around February. Most reputable companies seem to have good offers right now; e.g., $30 for Bitdefender antivirus, whose engine EAM uses (3 devices), $28 for Kaspersky Internet Security (3 devices). I do like EAM and have been using it for many years on multiple computers, but some of us have neither the time nor the inclination to be constantly fiddling with it in order to make it work.

Every software company goes through occasional periods where their software has bugs. We understand it's frustrating, but we had to make a lot of changes to Windows Security Center integration to meet Microsoft requirements going forward, and with changes like that it's not abnormal for there to be at least a few bugs. Keep in mind as well that problems with Anti-Virus registration with the Windows Security Center aren't uncommon regardless of whose Anti-Virus you're talking about. Microsoft API's aren't always bug-free either. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Quirky 6 Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 Some more info. The problem does not go away from Windows' own controls i.e. trying to re-enable protection from within WSC.

Quirky 6 Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 Exactly, although in general WSC does seem slow in getting the system "status", so the issue will appear 1-2 minutes after startup has fully concluded. I have a slow PC anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GT500 884 Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 We'll also need debug logs if that's not too much to ask. Open Emsisoft Anti-Malware. Click on the little gear icon on the left side of the Emsisoft Anti-Malware window (roughly in the middle). Click Advanced in the menu at the top. Scroll to the bottom of the Advanced section, and change the option for Debug logging to Enabled for 1 day. After that, close the Emsisoft Anti-Malware window. Reproduce the issue you are having (restart the computer so that the Security Center fails to read Emsisoft Anti-Malware's status). Once you have reproduced the issue, open Emsisoft Anti-Malware again. Click on the little icon in the lower-left (right above the question mark) that looks like little chat bubbles. Click on the button that says Send an email. Select the logs on the right that show today's dates (if you try to send too many logs, then we may not receive them). Fill in the e-mail contact form with your name, your e-mail address, and a description of what the logs are for (if possible please leave a link to the topic on the forums that the logs are related to in your message). If you have any screenshots or another file that you need to send with the logs, then you can click the Attach file button at the bottom (only one file can be attached at a time). Click on Send now at the bottom once you are ready to send the logs. Important: Please be sure to turn debug logging back off after sending us the logs. There are some negative effects to having debug logging turned on, such as reduced performance and wasting hard drive space, and it is not recommended to leave debug logging turned on for a long period of time unless it is necessary to collect debug logs.

GT500 884 Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Sure, you can send logs in a private message. Technically the FRST logs can be sent at any time, but if you want to wait until the issue happens then run FRST after collecting and sending debug logs. FRST will add the last 10 errors from the Windows Event Logs to its Addition log file, so if it's been too long since the last time the issue has happened then we may not see it in the FRST logs.

Quirky 6 Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 I'm a bit confused with the EAM logs procedure. I thought it'd just collect them right AFTER the issue occurs (or while it is occurring), but your instructions seem to indicate that I should first enable logging (when the issue is NOT occurring), and then wait for the issue to appear. Remember that I cannot trigger it reliably. Restarting the PC will not always initiate the problem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JeremyNicoll 81 Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 EAM's debug logging (which is completely different from the Forensic log) creates a lot of extra log data. It's a continual trace of what EAM is doing internally. It has to be on before the problem happens so that those logs show the logic of what EAM was doing when it hit the problem, and what it did next. Some people (me, for example) almost always have debug logging on... but I stop and start it every three or four days and throw away the accumulated log files. However whenever I have a problem I already have the logs to send to Emsisoft. Debug logging will slow your machine down though, especially if your disks are spinning rust; it's not so bad with SSDs. And, if you turn the logs on and forget about it, they could fill up your disk. FRST's logs are quite different. They're a snapshot of the machine state (critical registry keys, DLLs, eventlog records etc) at the time that FRST is run. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GT500 884 Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 @JeremyNicoll is correct. The logging is left off by default due to the drawbacks he mentioned, and needs to be turned on before an issue occurs in order to capture it in the logs when it happens. If necessary you can set logging to remain on for several days, or even indefinitely if necessary, and then just turn it off once you get the logs for us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Quirky 6 Posted July 25, 2020 Report Share Posted July 25, 2020 Logs sent. The EAM logs were sent while the issue was occurring. Rather unusually, the issue sorted itself out this time so when FRST logs were being collected WSC was working normally. I was in the middle of rebooting my router during the log collections, but it should be irrelevant. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

marko 12 Posted July 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2020 I'm wondering whether the a2service crash was caused by disabling debug logging as this happens on my machine, without fail, shortly after I disable debug logging and has been for at least two years. I know we've discussed this at length in the past GT500 so I don't want to sidetrack Quirky's issue, but maybe Quicky's crashes are caused by turning debug logging off rather than being related to wsc integration ? I've never understood why EAM doesn't log the times when debug logging is enabled or disabled and show them in the Forensic Log - surely it should do, like for every other changed to Settings.

It strikes me that if Quirky has only had two a2service crashes recently, and if he has enabled debug logging twice recently, then it may be that the crashes were caused by debug logging being turned off, either manually or via the inbuilt timer. For info, trying to test this by turning debug logging on and off again isn't as simple as it sounds as the crash sometimes won't happen for a few hours. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We believe this issue is fixed in the latest beta:https://blog.emsisoft.com/en/36723/emsisoft-anti-malware-2020-8-beta/ Here's how to install it: Open Emsisoft Anti-Malware. Click on the little gear icon on the left side of the Emsisoft Anti-Malware window (roughly in the middle). Click on Updates in the menu at the top. On the left, in the Updates section, look for Update feed. Click on the box to the right of where it says Update feed, and select Beta from the list. Right-click on the little Emsisoft icon in the lower-right corner of the screen (to the left of the clock). Select Update now from the list. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps I'll try it on my laptop. As for the main PC, I reverted to 1909. Another good lesson learned: never install Microsoft's first W10 release of each year (around March). If you have to update, go for the second one (around September) which is more like a service pack. Way more reliable (but still buggy, make no mistake) In any case, I will report back if this problem re-appears whether in the beta, or the next stable EAM release.
