Settings migration
In version 7.2 and later, your settings from ESET Cyber Security version 6 are automatically migrated to the new version during the upgrade process.
|
Not all firewall rules from ESET Cyber Security version 6 can be migrated to version 8. After updating, check which rules are visible in application preferences, section Firewall. Any firewall rules that were not migrated need to be created manually. |
After the migration process, ESET Cyber Security displays a notification on the home screen indicating successful settings migration: Your settings were transferred to the new version.
|
If you already upgraded your ESET Cyber Security from version 6 to version 7 or newer, you can still migrate your settings when you upgrade to a later version. For instructions, visit the ESET Knowledgebase article on migration. |
All settings that are available in version 8.X will migrate from version 6, except:
•Complex firewall rules (Only application rules that allow/block inbound or outbound communication are migrated)
•Privileges settings (Not supported in version 8)
•Custom proxy server for updates (Custom proxy is not supported in version 8)
•Quarantine content
•Cleaning levels for scans
•Target profiles for On-demand scan
Settings for the following features are stored in the migration .xml file and can be loaded when the features are present in future versions of ESET Cyber Security:
•Device control
•Parental control
