MalwareBytes

We have reports that MalwareBytes is interfering with FileCenter on multiple levels. Whitelisting FileCenter does not make a difference. For now, the only solution is to disable MalwareBytes.

My Receipts Are Missing

If you use FileCenter Receipts and your receipts are suddenly missing, see Missing Receipts in the Knowledge Base.

Norton False Positives

Norton Data Protector is raising two false positives with FileCenter. It raises the first one during installation. After installation, it falsely flags FileCenterThumbs.exe every time you run FileCenter.

While we work with Norton on a solution, it is safe for you to simply pause Data Protector during the install and to whitelist FileCenterThumbs.exe. (instructions)
