    HOW I FIXED MY SUM (The slightly longer but easy way)

    1. Disable on access scanning on the server

    2. Launch the Setup.exe in here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Enterprise Console\SUMInstaller (You will get errors)

    3. When the installer says it cant find the file search for the name here: C:\ProgramData\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\INFECTED

    4. You will find the missing files with .000 appended to them

    5. Copy the files out of the infected folder to the path specified by the installer

    6. Hit retry, it will find your file

    7. Repeat for each file, my server needed i think 4 files restored.

    8. This will repair the SUM and start the service

    9. Use "Update Now" on your update manager in the enterprise console
