Hotfix available for Dr.Web applications under Windows

January 23, 2023

Identified software issues that might affect the user experience in an adverse way have been resolved in Dr.Web applications. Specifically, the hotfix addresses a false positives problem preventing processes from being started with WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation), which could disrupt the operation of legitimate applications. It also eliminates a defect that under certain circumstances could cause the anti-virus to display a false “corrupt license” notification.

The changes affect Dr.Web 12.0 for Windows as part of Dr.Web Security Space (PC), Dr.Web 12.0 for Windows servers in Dr.Web Server Security Suite, Dr.Web 12.0 and 13.0 for Windows PCs (supporting centralised protection) in Dr.Web Desktop Security Suite, and in the subscription-based Dr.Web Anti-virus 13.0 for Windows.

The update will be downloaded and installed automatically.
