Sophos Endpoint Security and Control installation failed
If the Protect Computers Wizard fails to install Sophos Endpoint Security and Control on computers, it could be because:
- Sophos Enterprise Console does not know which operating system the computers are running. This is probably because you did not enter your username in the format domain\user when finding computers.
- Automatic installation is not possible on that operating system. Perform a manual installation. For instructions, see the Sophos Enterprise Console advanced startup guide.
- The computers are running a firewall.
- “Simple File Sharing” has not been turned off on Windows XP computers.
- The “Use Sharing Wizard” option has not been turned off on Windows Vista computers.
- You selected to install a feature that is not supported on the computers’ operating systems.
