Hi There,

We've clarified the post above. Based on the version number Omid reports, he was running an early pre-release version of the antimalware client.

Thanks!

Each of my Windows 7 Clients have the same issue reported by Omid. Kimborly, is there a solution to this? Your recommendation seems to be "install one of the above patches if one of the above patches fails to install." which clearly doesn't make sense ;-)

What do we do if KB2394433 fails to install with the error:

"A newer version of the product is already installed on this system"?

Hi There,

Thanks for your question. You should read the following blog post: blogs.technet.com/.../fep-mse-and-fcs-and-windows-7-sp1.aspx

Specifically, the para below:

If in doubt about what you have installed, view your version number, on the Help menu, click About. If your version is reported in the range of 2.0.1677 to 2.0.2530, then you should install one of the above, according to your organizational needs

Thanks!

My Forefront Endpoint Protection Version is 2.0.2337.0 but when trying to install KB2394433 it fails with the following error: Microsoft Forefront Client Security Antimalware Service -- A newer version of the product is already installed on this system.
