Malware Remover 6.6.8 update, activates app

English QNAP App
1

I had a bunch of my QNAPs nag about the update of malware remover (I have this mandatory app disabled on all of them) So far previous ‘mandatory’ updates just updated the app and left it disabled, this time, this app enabled itself after the update.

@QNAP, make sure you do not turn on disabled apps upon update.

Agree. :+1:

@dolbyman is removing that QPKG an option? IIRC it can’t be uninstalled through the UI without a modification to /etc/config/qpkg.conf

edit: found the relevant post: How to move Malware Remover between Disk Volumes? - QNAP NAS Community Forum

And then recalled uninstalling it won’t prevent it being installed again. Got to find out how and where QNAP are keeping the flag that says it’s been installed.
