Webroot Updates
I am new to the Webroot community.
Are updates to Webroot done automatically during the subscription period? If so, how do I check to see what Webroot version I have? Thanks

Everything to do with updates is done automatically, it doesnt require any user input whatsoever 🙂
I am also a new user, I do think it is a little confusing to have a "check for updates" right click option in the system tray, only for a window to pop up and tell you it is done automatically. If it is totally redundant, then perhaps the option could be removed all together, but I do wonder if it is there as different editions of Webroot may act differently ?

The check for updates does technically have a function, it forces a client check amongst other things. For instance I fired up a Win Vista VM I haved booted up in probably a year and the client was a good bit out of date. It would have checked for an update itself eventually but clicking the "check for updates" forces the check and it updated right away.
Ah thanks Rakanisheu, I knew there would be a reason, and now i know why 🙂
