While searching for a solution, I re-installed CIS several times. After this time, the problem is active again, so I unblock the process in the firewall, update Comodo by the way, block again and after 3-4 restarts of the computer, the CPU load returns to 3%. I have observed that this solution works for +/- 10 days. Send anonymous program usage statistics to COMODO + change file attributes to read only in TaskĪdditionally, I recently blocked (in/out) cmdagent.exe in the firewall. After a few days, the problem returned like a boomerang.Īutomatically install program updates in critical situationsĬheck for updates during Windows Automatic Maintenance In most cases, this was the solution to the problem, but unfortunately only for a short time. In order to solve the problem, I deactivated individual functions and modules one by one. I do not use any other additional security programs. Windows Defender Virus + Firewall are disabled permanently. In most cases, the CPU load increases after launching a web browser or RSS client.ĬIS 12. Second (desktop), the CPU load reaches 97%. Not so long ago in 2022, I was still using Win7Pro here and the problem was 3/year, restart helped. It almost looks like I’m mining cryptocurrency for others. I have already tested a few or a dozen tips available on this forum and on the Internet and I still have a CPU usage of the cmdagent.exe process at 97% every few days. It seems that we have been struggling with the same problem for many years. I couldn’t even find a Comodo page clearly explaining the differences between these two versions.Is there any solution to this problem that works and is effective? To be honest, I’m not a fan of the names how would a new user know the difference between the “Pro” and “Premium” versions? “Premium” almost by definition implies added functionality over a free version. If you have a trial of Pro installed and don’t want to pay for the Pro product, the only fix I’m aware of is to export your settings, uninstall the Pro version, and install the free Premium version, then import your settings again. The links in the post that Eric Cryptid linked to in the very first reply to my original post are links to the Premium (i.e. Links to trials for the Pro version are everywhere, but links to the Premium (free) version are much harder to find. What I didn’t realize is that Comodo Premium is the free version, while Comodo Pro is the paid version. This method always worked until my last installation. For example, I might type in “Comodo Firewall”, then click the first result and use the download link. In the past, I always downloaded Comodo from one of the pages search engines point to. I know of no way within the app itself to convert to the free version. PS: more over the ‘get license key’ link from the activation dialog ( Shopping Cart) is not working – Dragon says that website was unreachable…įor anyone who has my problem (Comodo first tells you to activate, then after a while completely shuts down if you don’t provide a license), I eventually determined that the version of Comodo I downloaded was a trial for the Pro version. I don’t generally mind to pay for software, but if I’m offered a freemium version, I consider the differences and personally I don’t need the pro benefits – if Comodo wants money for their services in any case these days, this would be a legitimate move, but it should be communicated clearly I can live with the nagging and the need to closely look for a downgrade link, but if this really turns out to not provide a way to go on for free, I’d be a bit unhappy*, as my download came via Best Internet Security Software 2022 | Antivirus Total Security, which obviously claims to be the landing page for the premium version (but linking to ) – and the FAQ there is still telling us, CIS Premium is even free for business users … Well, I just entered the ‘10 days warning period’ today and will see, what happens then…
