It looks quite ok to me except for the line that says "Installation of RMSNT skipped".  Can anyone please explain to me why I keep getting that message?  Was there a component that failed to install or something?

Thanks!

    Hi,

    AutoUpdate goes through the 2 stages.  The downloading of each component and then the installation of each component where new files were downloaded.  It's just saying that it skipped it because there was nothing new for that component.

    AutoUpdate and RMS don't get updated as regularly as SAV so you will often see this.

    The more verbose log of AutoUpdate is slightly more informative and can be found in the following location:

    "\ProgramData\Sophos\AutoUpdate\Logs \ALupdate[timestamp].log" on Vista+.

    "\Program Files\Sophos\AutoUpdate\Logs\ALupdate[timestamp].log " on older platforms.

    Regards,

    Jak
