Latest Version: 7.6.0.1471/7.6.0.6AMD64
IMPORTANT NOTE: Version 7.6 does not currently support the use of the ThreatLocker Proxy
Note: It is expected behavior on Upgrade and Deployment for the Agent to check-in to the Portal on 7.6 once, and then delay the next check-in as it prepares its files for use. This will also prevent the Tray from starting/updating until the Service is checking in normally again.
Note: It is recommended to update a small group of machines to 7.6 prior to global deployment due to the significant amount of changes made to this build. Here is how you can update individual machines or specific groups: Updating the ThreatLocker Version on a Single Computer | ThreatLocker Help Center (kb.help) | Updating ThreatLocker to the Latest Version | ThreatLocker Help Center (kb.help)
Reminder: Windows Server 2008 needs to be fully patched in order for the ThreatLocker Agent to fully function.
