Manual Updates

Updates > Manual

Use this screen to update the selected IWSVA components and scan engines.

• Update—Select a component and click Update to trigger an immediate update of that file. Trend Micro recommends that you schedule automatic product and pattern file updates (Updates > Schedule). The following lists IWSVA components you can update:

• Virus pattern (includes Trojan and worm signatures)

• Spyware pattern

• Bot pattern

• IntelliTrap pattern

• IntelliTrap exception pattern

• Smart Scan Agent pattern

• Script Analyzer pattern

• Protocol Information Extraction Pattern

• Virus Scan Engine

• Advanced Threat Scan Engine

• URL filtering engine

• Rollback—If a virus pattern update ever fails, you can easily "rollback" to a previous version of the file to restore protection.  

• Note: You must set IWSVA to keep a cache of at least two (2) pattern files (at the bottom of the Updates > Connection Settings page). Rollback is not supported for phish and URL Filtering engines.

• Update All—Click Update All to trigger an immediate update of all components.
