Hello, i tryed to install Comodo firewall on my girlfriends laptop. After installation i changed the configuration to proactive config. Than i restarted the laptop and now i am unable to boot. when i boot the laptop is just loads for ever and nerver got me to the login screen. its just the black screen with the windows loading thing that never stops spinning. i need to do a system restore point to be able to login again. the strange part is, i have the exact same laptop just with Windows 7 and the comodo installation went well. we have both no other security programm installed just Zemana Antimalware premium.

Anyone know why it is working well und windows 7 and on windows 10 i cannot boot into windows?

Any help would be much appricated.

Possible incompatibilities if running a Preview builds, or an Windows 10 update was pending.

Are you able to boot into Windows 10, or still need assistance?
Yes i was able after a restore point. i think i try to find another good solution, maybe she can use my voodooshield premium if he likes i. but its sad that comodo doesnt seems to work. i will post it on the comodo forum so they can look into it.

maybe there is an essential windows file that is getting sandboxed or blocked. Actually, I would more suspect it is a driver. COMODO sometimes will treat a driver as unrecognized.

You need a clean install to install Comodo without issue, and comodo need you install it before any AV.
There is no other av installed, only Zemana antimalware and they are compatible. at least it should on windows 7 it has worked without problems

Ok, but for no problem at all you need a clean install of windows and then you install Comodo. I have windows 10 latest build and Comodo Firewall without issue.
