Removing Incompatible Products

 

For Comodo Internet Security to operate correctly, incompatible security software must first be removed from endpoint machines.

  • During the installation process, ESM BE can detect and automatically remove some brands of incompatible software

  • However, certain software can be detected by ESM, but must be removed manually

  • The following table contains a list of incompatible software and states whether ESM can detect and remove it or only detect it
