Update from Engineering

Not yet, we are pushing for one though.

McAfee and MIcrosoft are still working on this WSC bug it seems, but the workaround provided now is to disable Windows Defender from GPO to prevent it from taking over. I have not tested this myself yet, and I do not know how I feel about doing that... but as a "temporary workaround" could be good enough...

Windows Security Center intermittently incorrectly reports that Endpoint Security is disabled when running on Windows 10

Slightly off topic, but 10.7 isn't appearing in my ePO software manager after a library refresh.  Did it automatically appear for you all, or did you have to download it from McAfee and upload the packages to ePO?

Thanks

It should appear automatically in your software manager. Could potentially be a compatibility issue depending on which ePO version you use or could otherwise be a number of things. Could you please start a new thread for new issues so we don't entangle a number of issues. Thank you @billmoller 🙂

Comes automatic. 5 customers migrated from ENS 10.6.1 OCT to ENS 10.7 and FRAME 5.6.2.209 and all FINE >

MAYBE: You done so much testing for this case and POC that your EPO is down 😉

EXCEPT you WOULD have a CORRUPT SQL EPO DB. > You can find out IF you press the UPDATE BUTTON in Softare Manager and you WOULD get an ERROR. That would be Worstcase scenario.

We do that TEST on every EPO we new manage. Nothing found in the LOGS but the UPDATE CIRCLE turned RED.

10.7 showed up in our software manager, but initially only the extensions where in the bundle, no installers.

I've received a new POC build today and have completed some initial testing.

So far it seems good... have gone through 2 reboots without issue.

Glad to hear some good feedback on the latest POC 🙂

Please ignore my ignorance, but if this is really caused by an issue with WSC, how is an update to McAfee resolving it?

[mmuthuga]

McAfee and Microsoft actively worked to narrow down issue and found an error in McAfee is causing the incompatibility at this point. McAfee will implement changes to resolve the incompatibility.
