Internal Update Function Not Working with DB Pro

[dxace1]

I have had this problem for a long time -- the in-app UPDATE function for 

Driver Booster Pro simply does not work, forcing me to obtain updates by 

installing new versions of the non-pay version.  Can someone assist with 

this?

Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing DB.

If that does not work, most likely your anti-virus/antimalware/firewall...is blocking the connection.

Try temporarily disabling them (including windows Defender/Security)and see if it works.

I will try disabling AV/Firewalls, but in the past this did not work.  Same problem BTW for Advanced Systemcare Pro

I forgot to mention Controlled Folder Access. It often causes this issue by blocking the program from accessing necessary files.

You should check there to see if DB/ASC is blocked.

Can you specify how to access that in settings?

As with all windows functions.....simply click on the search icon in the taskbar (the magnifying Glass) and type Controlled Folder Access.

You will see it in the list. Click on it.

Thanks -- unfortunately, when I access that I get a response that DB/ASC is controlled by 

IT administrator....see attached screenshot

Are you signed in on Windows as an Administrator?
