Hi all,
I'm updating my remote host from the viewer dashboard but, after the acknowledge of upgrading starting, my host does not restart by itself
I have waited 10 minutes t but still it isnt started yet
is there some flag to be settled in the host settings?
thanks

Hi all, a little update:

I have tried right now to upgrade a remote host.
I have seen that the service "remote utilities - host" (automatic), during the upgrade, had been uninstalled and installed again (automatic as well).
But it has never been started: it stays stopped.

I guess I'm making some mistake but I dont know where.

I simply launch, from the viewer, the "simple update" feature...

Maybe some settings to touch?

thanks to all

Thank you for your message.

Could you please let us know if you have any antivirus software installed on the Host machine?

yes, guess it is a PC issue
on another PC it just happens that the remote host was correctly uninstalled but the installation of the new version never started...
I will check if something disturbs...
thank you!

Hello Marco,

Yes, sometimes the Host installation might be interrupted, for example by some firewall/antivirus software activity.

Please feel free to let us know if there are any updates on the issue.
