Hello,
I have downloaded the newest installer from Symantec, "14.2MPI x64 - 14.2.1031.0100". Downloaded on 12-17-2018 so this is currently the most recent Windows Server Installer.
We install this on Windows Servers ranging from 2012 to 2019. After the installation completes, on both the client and the management console I get a prompt to reboot. In the logs on the client before it even downloads any definitions, I get the following error: "Please restart your computer to enable Application Control Policy changes."
Also in the Status - Symantec Endpoint Protection it has: "There is one warning. - Symantec Endpoint Protection requires a restart. Please reboot your computer."
This generally causes concern from our customers/clients because they see this and think their server is not being protected by SEP, and most of these servers need to be scheduled for off hours reboots. Is there a work around or does anyone have any advice?
Thanks in advance!
- Chris
