Which Fort's Installer are you using? 32- or 64-bit?

tnodir commented 1 month ago

Are you using a Portable installation?

tnodir commented 1 month ago

Please uninstall Fort Firewall, delete the "C:\Windows\system32\Drivers\fortfw.sys" file and install Fort's 32-bit Installer.

rach-md commented 1 month ago

I use 32-bit, normal installation. Uninstall, fortfw.sys has been removed then install again, still not working.

We use RoboCopy.exe to copy the driver starting from v3.12.6

There is an error "Cannot copy driver to system ... Result code = 16" in your screenshot, which means that robocopy is failing.

    16      Serious error. Robocopy did not copy any files.
            Either a usage error or an error due to insufficient access privileges
            on the source or destination directories.

Let me install the Windows 10 1703 64-bit and double check it..

I actually managed to fix it manually (thanks to your hints) by remove _old from setup-vars.bat then run install.bat as administrator. Thanks for testing and also sorry for trouble.

tnodir commented 1 month ago

Thanks for a bug report.

Maybe robocopy.exe in Win10 1703 has other arguments order. Downloading the Win10..

ARCH=x86_64_old from setup-vars.bat lead to wrong source directory for driver installation. I don't understand technical issue but hope this found could help to solve issue with installer.
