How to disable F-Secure Client Security from Policy manager

Hi,

 

Sorry for posting this twice, replied to an old post at first....

 

I would like to disable Client Security on several hosts in my test domain, all at once from the Policy manager. How do I do this, is it enough to uncheck the choices below?

 

Enable Automatic updates

Real-time scanning enabled

Enable FW engine

 

E-mail and Web scanning are not in use.

 

Anything else I should be aware of, that also must be disabled?

 

When I tried to stop and disable all F-secure services on my PC, seems there still are 4 "drivers" resident in memory, see pic.  What are these and wouldn´t they continue to protect the PC even though I have disabled all Windows services?

 

Do I need to reboot every machine after disabling to make it work?

Thanks and regards,

JC

    Hi Vad and thanks for you answer! I´m sorry but expressed myself badly regarding the "reboot part" in last post, the question I was meaning to ask was:

     

    After I have disabled windows services, the drivers in the above picture are _still_ present in memory (I guess the Deepguard driver will unload when deactivated from PMC?).

     

    But do I have to reboot to "get rid of" the rest of the drivers, or are everything disabled despite the fact they reside in memory, won´t they "still work"?

     

     

    Thanks and regards,

    JC

    Hello J-C,

     

    The drivers will stiil be present in the memory, even after reboot with disabled F-Secure services, in order to start working if services start. But they are not active.

     

    Best regards,

    Vad
