Known Issues
| Issue | Description | Recommendation | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Windows Update forces a restart and interrupts measurement | Especially in Windows 10, Windows has a strict update policy and forces restarts of your computer, even if applications like SweepMe! are still running. This can interrupt a measurement and in the worst case damage your equipment. | In Windows 10, you can define Active Hours, during which Windows will not install updates and restart. For long-running or over-night measurements, set the Active Hours accordingly. As an administrator, you can set a group policy that Windows will not resart as long as a user is logged in. | |
| After changing the name of a DeviceClass, the setting has to be renewed | The setting does not work anymore. 'Find ports' does not load any ports. | Please change the DeviceClass to the new one and save your setting. | We will introduce a DeviceClass ID to the setting in a future version to overcome this issue. |
