Enable Liveupdate Tab Symantec Antivirus Client from Registry

Enable Liveupdate Tab Symantec Antivirus Client from Registry

Scenario: Live update has been disabled by System Administrator but you need to enable it.

It is damn easy if you have got Administrative Privileges on that machine, Let us start the tweak.

HowToDo:

Step1: Open Registry Editor

1. Open Run window and type regedit and then hit Enter

2. Go to “C:\Windows\System32” and search for “regedt32.exe”, double click the same -> if you love to use Mouse
3. Open Command Prompt and there type “regedit”  > Do this if you don’t want to leave any hints of  the commands you executed.

 Step2:  Navigate to the following path:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\INTEL\LANDesk\VirusProtect6\CurrentVersion\PatternManager

Inside Pattern manager you will see one “LockUpdatePattern” REG_DWORD Entry

Just double click on it and change the vale to 0(Zero) to Enable the Liveupdate Tab

 

 Note: If you have a 32bit client installed in a 64bit machine, then you have to navigate as follows.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\INTEL\LANDesk\VirusProtect6\CurrentVersion\PatternManager

Enable the “LockUpdatePattern” REG_DWORD by changing its vale to 0(Zero)

Congratulations you did it… Now just update your Antivirus to latest definition.

No need to be available in Office Network to get latest updates.
