  3. Perform one of the following:
    • For OfficeScan 10.x: Roll back the component to the previous version on both the OfficeScan server and clients, click Roll Back Server and Client Versions.
    • Roll back the component to the previous version on both the OfficeScan server and agents, click Roll Back Server and Agent Versions.
    • Synchronize the component version of the OfficeScan clients/agents with that of the server, click Synchronize with Server.
  4. On the client tree, select the domains or clients whose components you want to roll back. To select all clients/agents, select the OfficeScan server root icon.
  5. Click Rollback. The server will send a notification to the selected clients/agents.
  6. Click Back to return to the Rollback screen.
 
Manually rolling back patterns and scan engines are not recommended as the Security Server uses the scan engine most compatible with the current version of the product; however, you may apply changes as needed depending on the situation.
 

This way of rollback is recommended in emergency situations where the agent machine is having functionality issues such as crashes or System Hang after an agent pattern update.

To do a manual rollback:

  1. On the OfficeScan client, right-click the OfficeScan icon in the Windows taskbar, then select Unload Security Agent.
  2. Enter the unload password.
  3. Find the latest pattern file in the OfficeScan home directory:
    lpt$vpn.xxx
    where: xxx is the pattern file number

    By default, the directory is C:\Program Files (X86)\Trend Micro\Security Agent.

  4. Delete the latest pattern file.
  5. Load the security agent.
