Buenas, Recientemente he descargado el plugin del Latch para Windows y tengo problemas, no bloquea el inicio de sesion, ya he probado de todo en Windows 7 Ultimate x64.bits con Comodo Internet Security Premium como Avs el cual incluye Firewall. Elimine la aplicación desde Latch Web cree una nueva, desinstale el Plugin e hice una limpieza de registro con Advanced System Care Pro, volví hacerlo todo desde cero siguiendo a rajatabla todos los consejos e incluso dandole los permisos en el Fireall de Comodo y reiniciando según avanzaba y nada de nada, con el Enable marcado en todo momento, en la App del Movil si Parece con su correspondiente icono y desde hay tambien ya esta debidamente configurado y pareado para que supuestamente bloque el inicio de sesion, la instalación la he llevado acabo siguiendo este post: http://www.paspartus.com/2014/07/configurar-latch-para-proteger-tu.html y ahora desde este que biene a ser lo mismo… En principio no deberia de dar problemas por el mero hecho de estarse ejecuntandose en un sistema basado en 64.btis, no? Pero… puede influir el tener la particion del sistema cifrada con TrueCrypt o tener instaolado Malwarebytes Anti-Exploits ya que los dos se inician con el sistema? Ya que antes incluso de que aparezca el Bootskin de Windows, TrueCrypt te pide el Password posteriormente mostrando como es evidente el Bootskin y luego el Background de inicio de sesion de Winodws, y se supone que es hay cuando o donde deberia de aparecer el bloqueo de inicio de sesion de Latch, no? o es antes tal y como actua TrueCrypt y quizas por ese motivo esten en conflicto y este TrueCrypt impidiendo que se inicie Latch y por eso no veo nada? Y repito… a mi no me aparece nada de nada relacionado con Latch, introduzco mi pass y se abre el escritorio sin problemas, lo que si me he dado cuenta es que entro en Smconfig y no aparece LatchForWindowsLogin.exe ni en la lista de programas que se inician con el sistema, ni en Servicios ni en los Procesos que se pueden observar desde el administrador de tareas,Ufff¡¡¡ PD:Voy a probar descargar el Plugin de nuevo y digo cosas, saludos¡ Reply
