Release announcement: ESET Endpoint Antivirus/Security 9.1.2063.0 (incl. global Auto-updates channel)

This is to inform you that we have successfully published the hotfix release of both ESET Endpoint Antivirus and ESET Endpoint Security 9.1

For the time being all ESET Endpoints with regular online connectivity will start to upgrade to a newer version only after manual activation of the "Check for updates"-button in the Endpoint's main user interface, until February 7th, 2023, when the release window will continue with controlled update progress (50% serving ratio) to make the rollout curve smooth on the update servers, as well as on our customers' side, until finally serving all requests from February 21st, 2023.

Please keep in mind, that versions 8.0 and 8.1 still need reconfiguration in update profile (for managed networks) to allow this type of upgrade, and you can fine-tune the level of user interaction by setting the desired combination of "Application notifications" and "Application statuses" in advanced configuration beforehand.

Of course, this hotfix is now available for manual installation and the binaries are published in the software repository of ESET PROTECT and in the download section of ESET global website.

Changelog:

FIXED: Reboot notification showing up earlier than set by snooze time.
FIXED: Email client protection not operational after computer waking up from sleep.
