I'm an administrator for Gonzaga University School of Business computer labs. We have had Microsoft Forefront installed on our Windows 7 Enterprise lab machines for several years. We have just noticed that Forefront is disappearing from random computers. Not just one or two but upwards of 100 computers.
The symptoms are:
- The Forefront icon is missing from the systray.
- The program icons are missing from the Program menu.
- If I do a search from the Start button, I find an unresolved icon for Forefront. Clicking on it tells me there is no program associated with it.
- In the Programs And Features program list, there is an unresolved icon. Clicking on it to do an uninstall produces a message to the effect that the program has already been uninstalled, and do I want to remove the icon from the list.
I'm wondering if you know of any legitimate events that could cause this to happen.
Thanks,
Rob Joyce
