how it could affect the Group Policy of W7 to install Sophos SafeGuard Client????

Question

Hello,

this is a complex question to test Sophos Engineers :smileywink:. I have to install Sophos SafeGuard Client on a Windows 7 with a lot of Windows Group Policy applied.

Which Group policy of Windows 7 affect in the installation?

Some effects of my group policy in the installation:

- I don´t see the Sophos Icon in the System tray (notification area).

- I miss some windows services:

- SafeGuard (R) Log Service

- SafeGuard(R) Transport Service

Thanks in advanced,

Dolores

After suffering the installation of Sophos SafeGuard on a computer on which you have published a Group Policy in Windows 7 I can say that GPOs conflict with SGN - To install Configuration protection of the SGNClient_x64.msi package with msxml4.dll you must NOT have enable the GPO: Computer Configuration, Administrative Templates, Windows Components, Application Compatibility, Turn off Program Compatibility Assistant . - With a GPO you can disable windows services. It can NOT be disable scardserv service. :womanfrustrated: :23199
