Cumulative Update (KB5048652) in conflict with ESET anti-virus
Hi everyone, after restarting my PC from an update (KB5048652) I was just watching a video on internet and suddenly I've lost connection, I had no clue what was it, I was trying so much, tried all basic troubleshooting, restarting the system, the router, and even resetting my network settings, got nothing out of it, and then I figured out that my system was still connected to the internet but not getting any connections on any browsers only form Tor or activating my VPN so then I thought: "Hummm, I'm gonna trying to uninstall my ESET software and try reconnecting again" 2024-12 Cumulative Udate for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5048652), looks like having a conflict with ESET latest update. Just to let you guys know If anybody has something to add up. It could help others. Here's the cumulative update probably in conflict with ESET latest update screenshot.Product still listed as enabled in Antivirusproduct class even though uninstalled 5 days ago
I uninstalled F-Secure 5 days ago and have restarted/powered down this device several times since. It seems that either the data returned by this query is outdated (and a refresh/reload may solve the issue, if at all possible) or that Windows truly believes the F-Secure product is still installed and enabled. Function ConvertTo-NPHex { Param([int]$Number)"0x{0:x}" -f $Number } $Products = @(); Get-CimInstance -Namespace root/SecurityCenter2 -ClassName Antivirusproduct -ErrorAction Stop | ForEach-Object{ $hex = ConvertTo-NPHex $_.ProductState; $mid = $hex.Substring(3,2); $end = $hex.Substring(5); $Products += [ordered]@{ DisplayName = $_.DisplayName; Enabled = $( If( $mid -match "00|01" ){ $False }Else{ $True } ); UpToDate = $( If($end -eq "00"){ $True }Else{ $False } ); Updated = $( (Get-Date -Date $_.Timestamp).ToUniversalTime().ToString("yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ") ) } }; Return $Products | ConvertTo-Json; Output from snippet above: [ { "DisplayName": "F-Secure SAFE", "ProductState": 270336, "Enabled": true, "UpToDate": true, "Updated": "2020-06-17T08:09:16Z" }, { "DisplayName": "Windows Defender", "ProductState": 393472, "Enabled": false, "UpToDate": true, "Updated": "2020-06-17T07:59:53Z" }, { "DisplayName": "ESET Security", "ProductState": 266240, "Enabled": true, "UpToDate": true, "Updated": "2020-06-22T12:28:56Z" } ] I am absolutely certain that F-Secure is not installed. Not only did I remove it manually, but it's also not visible in the Security Center UI, not under installed programs and not detected by a PowerShell script that looks through the registry for installed programs. This device is also not listed in my F-Secure web administration console, so I know it's uninstalled. Expected situation: F-Secure isn't listed at all (it's not installed) Windows Defender is listed and not enabled ESET is listed and enabled Questions: Is it possible to 'force' a refresh of this class? Is it known when this class is 'organically' updated? Any tacit knowledge as to why the product is still in the response?
