Endpoint client and Windows 10 1903

Hi everyone,
has anyone tried to upgrade windows 10 to the 1903 version and install the endpoint client? in the release notes of ver 80.94 and 80.96 I see that it is not mentioned and does not seem to be supported yet. does anyone have feedback?

Hi Andrea,

 

On the "Endpoint Security Homepage" sk117536 under  "Client OS Support" you will see the following statement of Check Point:

2019-05-23 10_45_46-Endpoint Security Homepage.png

 

If you check sk115192 as they are referring to, you will see that the GA of Windows 10 1903 has been released on 21/05/2019. Thus it will be a matter of weeks before the EA client will be available and a couple of months before the GA client will be available.

 

So it is not recommended (due to not being officially supported) to install Check Point Endpoint Agent E80.96 (or E81.00 - which is new from 22/05/2019).

But you can try and see if it works, but be careful... 🙂

 

Kind regards,

 

Sean

Might be a slightly different problem, but thought I'd share for anyone coming across this thread via Google..

Even with the latest clients I still ran in to installation problems on Windows 10 1903.  I'd get this error at the end:

 “An error occurred during the installation of assembly “Microsoft.VC80.ATL, type=”win32”, version “8.0.50727.42”

Been spending the last few days going back and forth with support with no resolution.  Tried Windows update and installing Visual C++ (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads) but still no luck.

I've got E81.00 just since yesterday on 1903 and it works like a charm 🙂

E80.96 is working fine for me. You get a pop-up from Windows saying it may be incompatible but it works fine.

I tried upgrading W10 1809 to 1903 with E80.96, which did not work since windows does not want to upgrade (not compatible).

Uninstalling the 80.96 and installing the 1903 worked, but installing the latest E81.00 did not work, since the installer checks the windows versions and build, where 1903 is outside the windows of allowed versions...

Only solution was to go back to 1809 and install the R81.00

I have tried various clients and getting the version conflict issue as mentioned in some of the other replies. Look's like we are going to be waiting for the release of the new version of the client which will hopefully be soon.

A supported version of Endpoint Security client for Windows 10 1903 is yet to be released.

None of the current version (E81.00 is the latest) is supported on 1903 build.

Hi @Kiril_Kaper 

do you have any update in regards to Windows 10 1903?

I have tried to upgrade from Windows 10 1809 to 1903 and I have to first uninstall E81.00.7062 before I can install Windows 10 1903.

Was thinking of a possible need for a CFG version of E81.00?

Currently, please do not upgrade to Windows 10 1903 when using EPS clients - even E81 client does not support Windows 10 1903. According to the SKs cited above, there will be a EA version soon, followed by a GA client ca. 6 weeks later !

Hello,

isn't Checkpoint getting the releases earlier than the customers? When can we expect a new release for 1903?

 

Best regards,

@Kiril_Kaper  Hi,

 

Sorry but I'm more confident with Network Security Check Point products than  EndPoint...

Usually for example in the JHFA package is explicitly stated which is the GA package and which is not (EA).

 

I know this could be a stupid question.. but how can I understand and be sure that an EndPoint client is in GA?

Typically when that specific version has its own release notes?

A very good question!  In order to see the GA releases the best way is through the Endpoint Homepage located here https://supportcenter.checkpoint.com/supportcenter/portal?eventSubmit_doGoviewsolutiondetails=&solut...

 

This will give you the latest releases that are GA.

 

Thanks!

Please refer to sk102150 for GA build versions.
EA version will be a number less that GA, for example, E80.92:
GA build is 80.92.6149
EA build may be 80.92.6102

E81.10 GA build is 81.10.7191 - will be added soon to the SK.

Hi @AAAAAAAAAAAAALL!

 

I got a lot of trouble with FDE and upgrading in-place Windows 10 with several laptops models (HP, Dell, Surface..).

The problem seems to be with the firmware of machines.

 

Did you experience this issue before?

I just want to understand if other people encounter the same issue.

 

Thanks in advance,

Luca
