Sophos Won't Update

Hi Guys,

I'm really sorry if this been posted before but I can't work out most of the technical replies and if they apply to this case. 

My Windows defender is saying I need to update Sophos, but on the Sophos App it just says update failed. I've attached the log, does anyone have any idea what I can try?

  • Hello Oliver,

    this is just a 10 second-snippet form the logs, did you try to restart your system and see how it looks after that?

    For me it looks like a temporary problem, the download finally happened, then this has to be applied and normally some services have to be restarted, then.
    All this in just 10 seconds ... that requires a really fast PC.

    Mit freundlichem Gruß, best regards from Germany,
