Microsoft Security essentials minisetup AFTER imaging.

[clivebuckwheat]

Hi

I have a Microsoft security essentials issue. My reference computer has Microsoft security essentials on it, after it has been deployed to a test computer, it seems have to run through a minisetup where I must click next, next until it checks the latest dat file. Does anyone know why this is happening?

I expect it's because security essentials is for businesses with up to 10 PCs, and MS don't expect these to use imaging, and want to sell them forefront instead.

Happy to be wrong, though...

It happens because MSE requires a validation check, which you must run. This is expected behavior, and one you aren't going to be able to avoid.
