https://anywhere.webrootcloudav.com/zerol/wsasme.exe (from the console) still is at version 9.0.26.61 when 9.0.27.49 (Released November 11th, 2019) is mentioned in the release notes? I know automatic roll-out is ‘staged’ , but why stick to this old version for fresh downloads?

No I have not tried as I find v9.0.27.49 not to troublesome at this time. The new version is v9.0.27.201 but no info is supplied from Webroot? https://www.webroot.com/us/en/support/support-consumer-release-notes

IMO I think it’s because v9.0.27.49 is buggy but have not heard anything directly from Webroot. I have this issue: https://community.webroot.com/community-101-2/webroot-keeps-shutting-down-then-rapidly-restarting-itself-dozens-of-times-throughout-the-day-340994#post350481
