Hi,

Please refer to below url for more info on how to stop Fbackup feature.
http://download1.mwti.net/wiki/index.php/Escan/english/eScan-FAQ119

Also you make a registry file with below content
----------------------------------------------------------------------
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MicroWorld]

"DWBackUpX"=dword:00000000
----------------------------------------------------------------------

And place this file in c:\PUB\UPDATE\ folder.
The clients will get this file in updates and the feature will be disabled after next restart on the client machines.

This option for enabling and disabling AutoBackup Feature will be shortly provided in GUI.

Thanks

1 more Q:

I notice that is deferent reg path for "DWBackUpX" in deferent OS
For instance:
Windows XP - path is HKLM\SOFTWARE\MicroWorld
Windows 7 64 bit - path is HKLM\\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\MicroWorld

My Q is:
If I make two reg entries and put it in c:\PUB\UPDATE\ folder to be deployed with EMC, operating systems will apply both reg entries (for 32 bit and 64 bit systems) and since we use various versions of OS XP, Vista, W7, Server 2003 and server 2008 (32 and 64 bit) is it safe to 32 bit system input reg value for 64 bit system?

Hi,

You will just need to put only one reg file (for 32 bit),which is mentioned in earlier post.
eScan will detect the OS and will apply the entry correctly in the registry.
