Profile "Out of Compliance" Flag

Applies To: On-Premise/SaaS

If the issue persists, please attempt a clean repair on the endpoint by doing the following:

  1. On the endpoint, rename the following folders:
    Program Files\Kaseya\Scripts\KAV to KAV.OLD (delete any other duplicate KAV folders that may exist within the Scripts folder)
    Program Files (x86)\Kaseya\Scripts\KAV to KAV.OLD (delete any other duplicate KAV folders that may exist within the Scripts folder)
    Program Files (x86)\Kaseya\ExtDLLs\KaLua.DLL to KaLua.DLL.OLD
