Two services not starting after update

Hi, after the update to 2.20.4.1 (we are entirely Windows based) I have around 10% of my machines (around 50 affected in total) where the Sophos File Scanner Service and Sophos System Protection Service are not starting and are marked as bad devices in Sophos Central. I can manually start them but this isn't a viable solution especially as there are different machine affected each day. There is no commonality in the machines affected except all are running Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC (1809).

We have a bunch of machines running Windows 10 Education 20H2 and 21H1 and have yet to see the problem on these.

Has anyone else seen this?

Thanks,

Andrew

  • As we know Win10 1809 version was already on EOL last May 2021. I would suggest you upgrade those systems to their later version to avoid encountering issues not just for endpoint but for system patches as well.
