Upgrading Sophos Endpoint Security and Control

ramero

Apologies if this is a dumb question, but do I need to uninstall the existing Sophos Endpoint Security and Control [Anti-Virus 7.6.20 & Client Firewall 1.5.8] on Standalone PCs before installing the latest versions [i.e. Anti-Virus 9.5 & Client Firewall 2.5] or can I just install the new version on top of your current version?

Any advise would be appreciated and apologies if this has already been covered and I've missed it.

Thanks

    Hello ramero,

    while I think it should work I haven't tested it.

    Where do these PCs update from - a company server or Sophos? Just asking 'cause "standalone" could simply mean "unmanaged" and changing the update location to point to the new version might be all that's needed (I've only done it for 9.0/2.0 though). 

    How many "standalones" do you have? And from where do you intend to install the new version? A custom installer or the one from Sophos?

    In any case - don't forget to back up the configuration (especially for SCF).
